The captains, wives of captains, and mates aboard the Charles W. Morgan all navigated by the Sun from its first voyage starting in 1841 to its last whaling voyage ending in 1921. I've got classes coming up at Mystic Seaport, starting in late October, in which you can learn and use today the actual celestial navigation methods employed aboard the Morgan through those long decades. Details below.
By the way, it's been just a month since the end of the "38th Voyage", and I intend to post a few messages for 38Talk over the weekend. Just a heads-up...
