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.
