A frequently asked question They all sound good which class should I takeOf the various introductory classes above, if youre completely new to the subject or if youre looking for something with minimal math theres always some math in celestial navigation, then try our Easy Introductory workshop. If youre interested in history, old logbooks, and perhaps a bit more interested in mathematical details, too, then sign up for the 1. Century Methods class. If youre more practically oriented, more pragmatic, not much interested in historical details, and mostly looking for a last resort backup or a cross check of your GPS, then sign up for the Modern Celestial class. Finally, if youre looking for pure paper and pencil methods closest to the standard techniques taught a generation ago, then try our Traditional Celestial class. All of these will give you real, usable navigational skills and methods, though naturally the Easy Introductory class provides more basic capabilities. While each of these classes stands on its own, they also make a nice series curriculum, providing an overview of celestial navigation in different styles and eras. Comments 1. 3 posted. Mark Coady wrote 662. I have now done every course I think that has been offered so far at Mystic Seaport taught by Frank Reed in the last two years. I found the courses to all be extremely rewarding. Several things stand out. The course material is presented in a balanced way, with a well thought mixture of detailed calculation, broken up by historical, factual, and hands on aspects. This type of teaching is well suited to most, as it provides periods of more intense reasoning with relaxation and humor. Anyone can walk away with new found knowledge. I also feel that the approach of understanding historical context and a simple practical approach is unique. It has gone a great way toward clearing up a lot of my preconceived ideas and confusions resulting from the many contradictory or esoteric approaches found in various volumes or on the internet. Very simply, I learned a lot and it went a long way toward clearing up a mess. I was fascinated the whole time. The courses and Nav. List provide the tools to keep learning even after the course is over. I left able to measure what I see with a more calibrated eye for real world application, and a greater appreciation of human history. I can strongly recommend these classes for the curious, the fascinated, the historian, the hardcore navigator, or the armchair one. There is something in them for all. I also found the Nav. List community to be helpful and encouraging as my journey continues. I hope I can undertake even more material in additional courses in the future. There is nothing absolutely nothing half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats Kenneth Grahame, from the Wind in the WillowsCapt. Mark Frank Reed wrote 662. Mark, Thank you so much for attending so many classes, and thank you for your kind words Philip M. Sadler wrote 62. What a joyful and stimulating experience to enroll in Frank Reeds class, Celestial Navigation 1. Century Methods. Frank is a skillful and engaging teacher, able to draw students into this fascinating subject, whether they be novice or experienced. His depth of knowledge is tremendous. Participants get a real taste of what it was like to be aboard a sailing ship of the day. I learned much to enliven my own teaching and decode 1. It is a rare experience, indeed, to have so much thoughtfulness, enthusiasm, and fun packed into two days. This is the way to learn Philip M. Sadler, Ed. D. F. W.

I thoroughly enjoyed Franks first class in celestial navigation held at Mystic Seaport, and hope to be back for more. Samuel S. Caldwell MDSaratoga Springs, NYAndrew Seligman wrote 91. I took Franks basic class at Mystic seaport. Frank is a fantastic instructor. He made the noon sight and polaris sight reduction really easy Sarah Ilsley wrote 62. I also took Franks 1. Century Celestial navigation class. The instruction was thorough and I learned much more than I expected. Not only the techniques of celestial navigation, but a rich account of its history as well. We had plenty of time to practice using sextants ourselves, and Frank did his best to make sure that each of us understood what he was teaching. He really knows his stuff Also, the class was made more enjoyable through discussions with my other classmates during, and after the class had ended You know a class is worthwhile when the learning continues outside of the classroom. Bob Goethe wrote 91. We are considering using the planetarium in Edmonton as a place to teach celestial navigation, enjoying freedom from cloudy skies by actually teaching the mechanics of sextant use inside the planetarium theater itself.
