USE OF SEXTANT
Divided into elementary and ad vanced classes in nautical astron omy and yacht navigation, the ele mentary course includes the study of the use of the sextant, the com pass mercator chart, chronometer wireless time signals in their re lation to astronomy and naviga tion, and the finding of position at sea by means of land bearings aud sextant. This course is near duplication of the oue ofTered iu the Government department of Naval Science and Tactics.
In the advanced course the study proceeds to the finding of latitude and longitude by fixed stars; the determination of astronomical position by stars by means of the Weems Tables; ar tificial horizon observations; great circle sailing; and the use of sailing hand books, and charts.
SMALL REQUISITE
A general knowledge of arithmetic is practically the only requisite for the navigation courses oftered by the S. C. College. After a student has successfully completed the two courses he is able Ul navigate a ship to any part of the world. Several of Captain Jansen’s pupils navigated their own yachts iu the annual Honolulu race.
Final examinations for this unique college course are conducted on the spray-swept decks of yachts under full canvas on the blue Pacific.
After weeks of theory the capabilities of the student navigators ar« tested by Captain Jansen. Tbe final examination usually consists of finding a certain yacht or point somewhere off the coast, navigating only by observation of the sun or stars, with no chart except a plotting sheet for plotting the lines of position observed being used.
