The cel nav sight reduction tables Pub 249 comes in 3 volumes. 2 and 3 are similar to Pub 229, in that you enter with a-Lat, Dec, and LHA and come out with Hc and Zn. And like 229, there are specific volumes for specific latitude ranges. Also like 229, these are permanent publications. They never change. Calculates the data in the Sight Reduction Tables for Marine Navigation (Pub. The main purpose of this calculator is to facilitate the practice of celestial navigation at sea. A secondary purpose is to provide the solutions of a spherical triangle of which two sides and the included angle are known and it is necessary to find the.
These Sight Reduction Tables have been condensed into as compact a form as possible. Each set of tables covers seven degrees of Latitude, which should satisfy the needs of most people. Simply download the set, or sets, that best matches your cruising latitude.

Taking a leaf out of the Air Tables, pub 249, here are a set of sight reduction tables that return Integer values for Hc, d' and Z. They are easier to read and should make the whole sight reduction process a little easier with minimal impact on accuracy.

Declination in these Sight Reduction Tables is limited to 23 Degrees. The rationale being these tables are for reducing a Sunsight where the declination never exceeds 24 Degrees.
Most of us amateurs sail in the summer when Latitude and Declination are the SAME. These tables make the transition from SAME, at the front, to CONTRARY towards the rear, as seamlessly as I could contrive. No flicking through SAME/CONTRARY/SAME/CONTRARY page after page.
Where in the tables the transition from SAME to CONTRARY occurs depends on your selected Latitude and LHA. It should all become clear when you start using the tables.
It's also worth pointing out that Sight Reduction Tables do NOT go out of date. Download them once, print them, bind them with nice covers and they're yours forever.
