The Loran-C Electronic Navigation class is designed to introduce Loran
navigation systems to boaters. This course is structured to be relevant
to all who may use electronic navigation and covers issues particular to
each user. The class includes "hands on" workshop activities with an
emphasis on practical navigation.
The course reviews basic charting and navigation, since those skills are
the foundation of electronic navigation. Also covered, are conditions
affecting Loran-C performance. Exercises are presented in charting, course
plotting, and position fixing.
