Learning navigation requires the boat as well as the chart

Have you trained with old navigation tools and charts, and could you teach viewers how to use them?

Yes, but a worthwhile lesson should be demonstrated aboard a boat, ideally with a more expert navigator leading the practical work.

The answer draws on extensive navigation instruction using both old and modern techniques, together with some charting practice. It also acknowledges that more experienced navigators are available. A useful demonstration would need to take place aboard a boat rather than remain an office lecture. Working with a more experienced friend at sea would show the tools, decisions, and questions in their proper operating environment.
