Year: 1980 Language: English Author: Campbell S. Genre: Guide ISBN: 0-87165035-5 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 100 Description: The biggest revolution in navigation has been the hand-held or pocket calculator. For under a hundred dollars, you can now banish the tedium of manual calculation. The object of this text is to introduce the small-boat navigator to hand-held calculators, to help him select one suited to his needs, to discuss operating procedures, and to present sample programs—designed for a minimum practical calculator—to solve most of the common navigational exercises. The list of programs includes the principal exercises encountered by the small-boat navigator under way, as well as some additional ones useful in deriving auxiliary and planning information. The programs themselves have been designed with the yachtsman in mind, and were selected, developed and thoroughly tested in the course of a transpacific voyage undertaken by the author.
