Introduction to Coastal Navigation Coyright 2012 Bruce S. Liese. All rights reserved. Please do not copy or reproduce without permission of author.

Knowledge Base Charts (symbols, longitude, latitude, coordinates, compass rose, scale) Publications (Coast Pilot, Local Notice to Mariners, cruising guides, tide and current tables, navigation rules, light list) Sources and publishers, keeping current (esp. Aids to navigation (ATONs) Coyright 2012 Bruce S. Liese. All rights reserved. Please do not copy or reproduce without permission of author.

Knowledge Base (con’t) Instruments (compass, rulers, dividers… Charting a course True, magnetic, compass directions Dead Reckoning (using speed, time, course to steer) Tides and currents Current and leeway (estimated position, course to steer) Coyright 2012 Bruce S. Liese. All rights reserved. Please do not copy or reproduce without permission of author.

Definitions Navigation: Practical use of visual observations and charting to answer two questions: –“Where am I?” –“How can I safely get where I want to go?” Coyright 2012 Bruce S. Liese. All rights reserved. Please do not copy or reproduce without permission of author.

Definitions (con’t) Coastal Navigation: Passagemaking within sight of land (vs. celestial navigation which uses sun, moon, planets, stars) Piloting: Directing safe passage within very restrictive waters, with continuous reference to landmarks, buoys, soundings, etc. Coyright 2012 Bruce S. Liese. All rights reserved. Please do not copy or reproduce without permission of author.

The Chart Mercator Projection: Meridians of longitude run from North to South Pole. Parallels of latitude cross at right angles (globe flattened out). Polyconic Projection: Cut as overlapping cones. Best example is the Great Lakes (e.g., 14905). Contents: warnings, seabed, compass rose, ATONs, obstructions, facilities, topography, date, depth contours, landmarks, lights, natural features, title, currents, ports, variation. Coyright 2012 Bruce S. Liese. All rights reserved. Please do not copy or reproduce without permission of author.

The Chart (con’t) General charts (1:600,000 to 1:150,000) show a portion of the coast with only enough detail for navigating between ports (small scale) Coastal charts (1:150,000 to 1:50,000) show a smaller portion of coast with enough detail to navigate in and out of ports and along shore Harbor charts are very detailed (large scale) Small craft charts include ICW, special areas, facilities, and services Coyright 2012 Bruce S.
