The Mariners School four-day/four-night and six-day/six-night On-Water
Navigation course takes place onboard the sailing catamaran
Destiny's Desire and offers real-world coastal navigation
training with practical hands-on experience along some of
the east coast's most scenic waterways. Navigation uses state-of-the-art
GPS and e-chart navigation, as well as traditional log and
compass techniques using paper charts, with special emphasis
on the use of radar.
Instruction occurs in daily group and individual
sessions, with plenty of time for navigational practice, reading
and site-seeing. As many as six students can live and work
comfortably on the vessel. Accommodations are double occupancy
private cabins, and spouses, partners or friends who may not
be interested in the navigation training will find the experience
delightful simply as a voyage.
