Marine navigation is the process
of directing the movements of a vessel from one point to
another. Historically, piloting, dead reckoning, and
celestial methods have been used for this purpose. The
earliest form of marine navigation was piloting, which
came into being when man guided his vessel with respect
to familiar landmarks.
