    Default Explaining how to use the nautical almanac-tutorial

    Knowing how to use the nautical almanac for a sight reduction is vital for celestial navigation. Once you know that the rest is pretty easy and the almanac is really only difficult because there aren't many sources that explain it's use for the newbie. My intent is to allow you to have enough information to do the sight reduction yourself without needing to take a class. As far as I can tell this is the only video online that tries to cover this. I also have several gear reviews and compass / navigation type videos on my channel.

    Aha, I figured out the embed! 5th time's a charm.

    I've stopped in from time to time but I need more internet content now to fill the time.
    So I stop in more often.
    I forgot how much information was on this forum, it's huge.
