Reeds Astro Navigation Tables 2017

Reeds Astro Navigation Tables

Reeds Astro Navigation Tables is an established book of annual astro-navigation tables compiled specifically for the needs of yachtsmen. It contains all the information the ocean-going sailor needs (without the bulk) in order to navigate by the sun, moon, planets and stars, using tables devised by practical ocean navigators. This book, together with a sextant, will enable sailors to navigate confidently and safely when out of the sight of land.

Features

• Calculated Altitude (using the versine formula)
• Azimuth (using the ABC Tables)
• Pro forma for calculating Intercept
