Description
Small Craft Nav-Aid
Designed for kayaks, rowing craft, and other small boats where traditional navigation tools are awkward to use, the Small Craft Nav-Aid brings simple, fast chart navigation back to the cockpit. Created by paddler and scientist Chuck Sutherland, this compact tool combines a transparent compass rose and calibrated monofilament line to quickly determine bearings, distances, and waypoints directly on a paper chart—without needing a large flat chart table or waiting for a GPS to catch up.
Easy to customize for local chart scales and magnetic variation, the Nav-Aid is ideal for sailors, paddlers, and navigators who appreciate the clarity and “big-picture” awareness that only paper charts can provide. Includes instructions.
