One of my goals for this year involves getting my SailCan coastal navigation + intermediate cruising certifications. Do any of you folks have advice on resources for learning the coastal nav (phpc.social)

@sailing One of my goals for this year involves getting my SailCan coastal navigation + intermediate cruising certifications. Do any of you folks have advice on resources for learning the coastal nav stuff? I've heard that the "official" book & test is a bit of a mess. Incorrect info, incorrect *answers*. Looking for an improvement over that.

I don't know how well it aligns with the syllabus (never been that interested in non-mandatory certs), but the book Coastal Turmoil is quite good. We had a nice full summer's cruise through Norway, Shetland, Hebrides, and the Irish Sea with that
