Celestial Navigation for Yachtsmen

Mary Blewitt

International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press, 1994

"Are the stars out tonight...?"
Celestial navigation, like knots and splices and reading maritime charts and tide tables, is one of the essential sailing skills. Whether you are a daysailer, weekender, blue water cruiser or lone circumnavigator, there WILL come a time when the GPS quits, the Loran won't work, and you're going to say, "Where the &$@!* am I?". If you haven't learned celestial nav at that point you had better be a ...

The Intracoastal Waterway Chartbook, Norfolk, Virginia, to Miami, Florida (Intracoastal Waterway Chartbook: ...

International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press, 2008

Excellent source... More than a set of charts!
Very usable in it's small page spiral format. Flipping pages as one cruises north or south is easy, and takes very little space at the helm. The annotations indicating marina locations save looking in separate guides when a stopping point is desired. Some obvious side trips (e.g. Banana River) are omitted and would have helped increase usefulness if included.

Mapping Graphic Navigational Systems
Roger Fawcett - Tang

RotoVision, 2008

Revised Edition! Maps and charts are needed by both businesses and society in order to make complicated information and data comprehensible. The art of mapping has therefore become one of the core graphic design practices. However, very little literature exists on this subject and the few books available fail to address all the issues involved. Mapping Graphic Navigational Systems offers a comprehensive study of all areas of ...

Quick Reference Celestial Navigation
Seapoint

Davis Instruments, 1991

Quick Reference cards provide accurate, concise boating information when and where you need it most. * They are great for all types of boaters from weekend day sailors to offshore cruisers and professional mariners. * Printed in full color on weatherproof high strength plastic, 8.5" x11" three-hole cards are impervious to conditions at sea which quickly destroy laminated paper references. * No offshore mariner should go voyaging ...

Latitude Hooks and Azimuth Rings: How to Build and Use 18 Traditional Navigational Instruments

Dennis Fisher

International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press, 1994

a set of projects and histories
This is not just a craft/wood working set of plans (and a very good set too) it is a history of the tools of navagation. The tools I built from this book work. They are not the best things to use for finding your way (wood instead of metal). But they work reasonably well.

The International Marine Log Book

International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press, 1997

Log Book by C. Dale Nouse
I've used this log book on an extended cruise down the east coast from New York to Florida and found it very well organized. The daily pages have room for all the information I record, plus comments and maintenance. The hard bound two page per day format works well, separating out navigation info from general comments. There is a daily checklist that makes sense. The binding has withstood ...

Mapping: An Illustrated Guide to Graphic Navigational Systems

3 reviews
Roger Fawcett-Tang, William Owen

RotoVision, 2005

if you're into mapping, maps and creativity
i rarely buy books like this one, oversized, lots of photos, design-oriented, especially since i like to put off buying books, but this one's the exception to the rule. it has great, concise text and wonderful images of maps to accompany it. it offers examples of maps as internet navigation, printed maps and maps as information sources in spaces(buildings...). this is not a guide on how to make ...

Wayfinding: Designing and Implementing Graphic Navigational Systems

Craig Berger

RotoVision, 2005

great resource
This book is a must have at my office. As someone who writes and designs wayfinding programs, I find myself often referring to this book. It contains step-by-step guidelines for producing successful wayfinding programs and is chock full of useful information on topics such as map design, symbols, legibility, colors and sign placement. Much of this information is gleaned from project audits, ...

The Community Mental Health System: A Navigational Guide for Providers

1 review
Elizabeth L. Teed, John A. Scileppi

Allyn & Bacon, 2006

My Students Did Not Find This Book Helpful
This book was one of the few I could find for a community mental health and behavioral health systems course. I knew the book was dense with material (my students are undergrads), but I did not anticipate my students' response to it. For them there was too much information. Maybe the text fairs better in Masters level courses. As the teacher, I wasn't thrilled with the overall organization ...

Embedded Security in Cars: Securing Current and Future Automotive IT Applications

Springer, 2005

Most innovations in the car industry are based on software and electronics, and IT will soon constitute the major production cost factor. It seems almost certain that embedded IT security will be crucial for the next generation of applications. Yet whereas software safety has become a relatively well-established field, the protection of automotive IT systems against manipulation or intrusion has only recently started to emerge. Lemke, ...

Celestial for the Cruising Navigator

Merle B. Turner

Cornell Maritime Press, 1986

A Pragmatic Text
I regained an interest in navigation as a result of my desire to improve my ability to read technical material. I had graduated from Navy OCS in the mid 60's my initial exposure. My interest has been inspired by Patrick O'Brian novels. I made little progress with celestial navigation by reading various editions of Duttons and Bowditch. Was surprised HO 214 was obsolete! Made tremendous ...

Explanatory Supplement to the Astronomical Almanac
If you need to know the details of astronomical or geodetic computations, or need to know how the tables in the Astronomical Almanac are computed, or need to know what the various versions of "Universal Time" are and how to compute them, you need this book. It is the definitive reference for many things, and gives you the definitive reference for the rest.
