Celestial Navigation Books

Celestial navigation remains a valued skill for offshore sailors and a requirement for professional qualifications. These books cover the theory and practice of navigating by sun, moon, stars and planets, from introductory guides through to detailed sight reduction techniques and worked examples.

You will find titles suited to RYA Yachtmaster Ocean candidates, merchant navy cadets studying for certificates of competency, and sailors who simply want a reliable backup when electronics fail. We also stock the Reeds Astro Navigation Tables and the Admiralty Nautical Almanac (NP314), which provide the astronomical data needed to work out sights.
