COORDENADAS HORIZONTALES. CAPITÁN DE YATE.

🎁 Try the Yacht Captain course for 7 days (2 topics unlocked, the rest visible) https://www.nauticacostaverde.com/cur... In this video, we cover LESSON 2 of the Yacht Captain course: HORIZONTAL COORDINATES. We explain altitude and azimuth, the types of azimuth (nautical, quadrantal, and astronomical), and we do exercises converting to astronomical azimuth and calculating zenith distance. What you'll learn from this class: ✅ What horizontal coordinates are and why they are local ✅ How to define and calculate altitude, azimuth, and zenith distance ✅ Converting nautical or quadrantal azimuth to astronomical azimuth ✅ Typical exam exercises with north and south latitude If you want to follow the topic in a structured way (videos + exercises + tests), take a look inside the course with a 7-day free trial: https://www.nauticacostaverde.com/cur... Inside the classroom (7-day demo): ✅ 2 complete topics unlocked (the rest of the syllabus is free) (visible) ✅ Videos by topic (at your own pace, no mandatory streaming) ✅ Downloadable materials and diagrams ✅ Bank of tests and simulations USEFUL LINKS • Go directly to the “Free Trial” section: https://www.nauticacostaverde.com/cur...
