/24-7PressRelease/ -- LearnToSail.Net has added the Navigation Aid Course Conversion Calculator and Basics Navigation DVD to their critically acclaimed Sailing training cdroms.
"So many boaters find this area of navigation confusing. A simplified explanation of true course, the magnetic compass, compass error and compass correction of correct variation and deviation and relative bearings is given on this navigation tool and can be done on the fly.", states Linda Cullum, CEO of LearnToSail.Net.
After only a few moments of experimentation with this navigation tool you will be able to solve tvmdc, correct magnetic compass error and make magnetic compass corrections of correct variation and deviation, find course to steer and convert relative bearings to true bearings easily, quickly and accurately with a turn of only three dials.

This coastal navigation tool is non-electronic, made of a durable plastic with holes made for a three ring loose leaf book and is guaranteed to be accurate within ¼ of 1 degree, simple to use, and inexpensive. No pencil is needed when using this device. The calculator is an incredible device that will benefit any boater, whether it be in a classroom or on a boat. It can also be used to verify GPS or other electronic readings.
The Course Conversion Calculator comes with easy to follow instructions and an unconditional warranty.
In the 13 minute and 50 second instructional DVD, a commentator, with the use of graphics, gives a simple, but thorough overview of basic navigation. The presentation covers the areas of the Magnetic Compass, the Nautical Chart, Variation and Deviation (using the TVMDC correction formula) and the conditions of Set and Drift. Included in the video is a demonstration of the Course Conversion Calculator.
This video is a valuable learning tool for any boater and is particularly useful as a teaching aid for instructors who teach Coastal Navigation at any level, whether it be in a Basic Boating Course which touches upon basic navigation, or in any Advanced Navigation Course.
The package makes for a nice Holiday gift and free shipping is being offered for this holiday season.
