|  Sextant Education
Hi! I have looked all over CF for a recommendation concerning a school that teaches not only the basics of sextants,(noonsite, reduction tables and a few star sites) but also how to use them to find distances to local objects and generally make them as useful as possible. I figure if I am going to use a sextant, I might as well use it in any situation that I can. Any old barnacles out there willing to teach such forgotten lore?
