It’s certainly not precise like GPS of course, but remember that five nautical miles is just under 10 km, well within visual range at sea to find an island or whatever. Celestial navigation is fascinating stuff, and it’s surprising how accurate it is.

We have our people simulating it in our campaign for Wolfpack, outside of the game, but when they go on patrol I give them their celestial data and they plot fixes using real world data.
