I set about reviewing the nav rules and did some basic
navigation exercises this morning which started me
wondering...

How many of us practice nav skills, review lights and
rules and just generally keep you hand in while the
boat is laid up for the winter?

Does using the GPS in the wife's car count? If not, then I'll admit I don't
spend a lot of time keeping my hand in navigating. Of course, as my boat is
now on the Rappahannock River and will probably never get out of Chesapeake
Bay, navigation skills don't have the priority they do for someone who
'sails the ocean blue'.
