Vintage Celesticomp V Celestial Navigation Calculator

  
Own a piece of celestial navigation history. This is a very rare and functional Celesticomp V celestial navigation calculator. They are no longer produced and really hard to find. It would be a great addition to a marine navigation collection. It's still perfect for a ditch bag (with a sextant and a watch) or just in case for navigational back up on a small boat. Eliminates the need for any books. Doesn't consume batteries like a GPS or rely on satellite availability.

Fits in a shirt pocket. As far as the internal ephemeris goes, I checked with StarPath (awesome source of knowledge and products for maritime navigation and weather) and the sun and stars are still current, but the moon and planets are expired.

Still a great small piece of kit for cell nav back up or your ditch bag. Pair it with a plastic sextant. No bulky sight reduction tables or almanacs in a pinch. Celesticomp V Celestial Calculator The Celesticomp is the celestial calculator by which all others are judged. For neophyte celestial navigators, it introduces you to the concepts without requiring tedious and error-prone calculations.

For experienced navigators, its saves time and reduces calculation errors. It does running fixes, averages LOPs and gives you a fix -- even identifies unknown bodies. It prompts you in plain English for the information it needs, and lets you check your input before calculating. It's very easy to use, and comes with a comprehensive instruction book containing sample exercises.

Fits in a shirt pocket and weighs just 3 ounces. Takes two CR 2032 batteries.
