The skill of navigation is paramount to sailing. Taking navigation classes is the most direct way to learn.
Learning how to navigate can be greatly helped by reading books or having it explained, but ultimately someone must teach you.

With practice, you can learn to navigate anywhere on the water. When the time comes, you can experience how navigation works and how to direct your craft wherever you want to go. In the classroom, we can explain exactly what navigation is. Out on the water, we can show you how navigation works. If you would like to sail on your own, then you already know why you should learn.
If you are sailing, knowledge of navigation is practically a must. Although many boats are equipped with navigation software and GPS positioning systems, being sure of yourself is a priceless feeling.
