Abstract
The purpose of this paper, which was presented at the seminar on Coastal Navigation described on p. 448, is to consider the role of ‘dead reckoning’ at the present time, in the context of coastal navigation, and to indicate one or two devices which might alleviate the navigator's task in trying conditions and perhaps improve the accuracy of the result.
