For a starter, check with the Canadian Sail and Power Squadron at
http://www.cps-ecp.ca/courses/eng/piloting.htm.
Advance distance courses are available only to members. However they may
refer you to one of your local Power Squadron.
I have found out that those who took this type of classroom course without
on the water practice had problem to assimilate the course.

Hi

I live quite some distance from a capital city ie about 180kms from the
closest navigation course

Does anyone know of any on-line or self-study basic nav courses I could
opt for ?

thanks

Fremantle TAFE used to do a correspondence course
with tapes and maps.
ring them and check

Sorry for late reply - been in Qld around Caloundra for a while.
I checked the TAFE site - no correspondence any more - eLearning now. The
coastal navigation unit is offered part time in the evenings but not
online. Pity - I had a friend do it many years ago and he was very happy
with what he learnt.
