Hi,
Does anyone remember back in the 70s, there was a celestial
navigation school called "Coast Navigation" in Santa Barbara?
They had mail order home study courses and sold their own brand
of sextants called "Simex" or something like that.
I remember, I wanted a "Simex Junior" that ran about $850 back
in about 1972.
Anyway, wonder what ever happened to them.
