To men who go to sea, there is ho skill more basic or more important than determining the position of the vessel and the courses to be steered to reach its destination. Even in this age of electronics there still must be a man, the navigator, who is responsible for the safe conduct of the vessel through all types of waters, whether it be on the ocean or in the most hazardous, shallow, rocky coastal areas, in both fair and foul weather, the Navigator and the Navigation Team are responsible. There is no room for error either in fact or in judgement. The Navigator and the men from the Navigation Department must take meticulous care, utilizing every possible scrap of available information and making no assumptions unsupported by facts, to direct the vessel on a safe course. In addition to Navigating',, departmental tasks consist of: Honors and Ceremonies, the keeping of accurate time throughout the ship, computing sunrise, sunset, moonrise, tides and currents, determining compass error, maintaining the ship's deck log, and keeping up-to-date charts for navigation.
