Details The updated course includes traditional and electronic navigation - navigating with paper charts and electronic devices (example, a chart plotter and app-based software). Boat handling subjects include operator and crew responsibilities, handling emergencies, anchoring techniques, docking and undocking techniques, marine weather, collision avoidance rules, and tide and current tables. Self-marking quizzes and charting exercises allow participants to practice and test what they learn. Each section includes printable course notes, instructional videos, skill-testing quizzes, practice exercises, links to supplementary resources, and an optional final exam. An electronic navigation device is required to participate in this course.

If you do not have a device, details to purchase and download one are provided in the course; these start at $14.00. One online meeting per week will combine lecture and question-and-answer format. You may also request one-on-one sessions with a tutor. Note: The course is offered as a single 12- 13-week course or two shorter courses, a Basic Navigation course (8 weeks) and a Boat Handling course (7 weeks).
