Module 19 - Electronic Navigation
Yachtmaster revision outcome
Use Electronic Navigation Mindset as an applied Yachtmaster decision, not just a definition list. The course outcome is that a Yachtmaster candidate can recognise the situation, choose a defensible action, and explain the check that supports it.
A paid revision product needs to build exam recall and cockpit judgement at the same time. Work this module by saying the cue, the risk, the calculation or rule if there is one, and the skipper action you would take before moving on.

What chart, almanac, forecast, instrument, or crew factor could change the answer?
Why it matters: Builds margin and avoids brittle exam-only recall.
What would I do now, and what would make me delay or stop?
Why it matters: Connects the course to Yachtmaster-level command judgement.
