Foundations and methods of celestial navigation for offshore sailing — taught in a technically sound, precise, and practical manner.
Celestial navigation is a classical yet highly precise method of determining position at sea. It enables independent navigation without electronic systems and provides a deep understanding of the movement of the sun, moon, planets, and stars. This module is designed for anyone who wants to expand their offshore competence or learn the fundamentals of celestial navigation.
The module covers all essential foundations and methods of celestial navigation:
The module is clearly structured and adapted to the participant’s level of knowledge:
Instruction is calm, structured, and technically sound. I place great value on precise understanding and practical application — independent of electronic systems.
Precise instruction in classical and modern methods.
Exercises with the sextant and real observation data.
Knowledge relevant for worldwide passages.
Focused, professional, and individual.
If you have questions about the module or would like to arrange individual training, I look forward to hearing from you.
