What is real navigation?

Ok yeah the sextant feature is really realistic. But the navigation officer have to earn his money too ^^

You don't have to calculate your position at all if you don't want to . Just ask the navigator for a dead reckoning or a celestial fix . Its way more fun than the old waypoints system .

Real nav is anyway really cool.
And find boats can sometimes be quite easy:

Right straight on this medium cargo! lol

I wholeheartedly agree. It was a warning to the uninitiated. Also a reason to learn how to use the sextant if you do something reckless and have to save your career by navigating on your own.
