Developed in cooperation with the Boat US Foundation, Modern Marine Navigation (MMN) is an in-depth course covering traditional and electronic navigation. It includes coastal navigation, plotting positions, dead reckoning, visual fixes, ATONS, charts, GPS, chart plotters and trip planning. The course covers navigation techniques as well as voyage planning techniques and use of float plans. The course is amply illustrated and features links to download Navigational Charts and relevant publications like the Nav. Rules, Light Lists, Coast Pilot, etc. It includes an extensive glossary linked to the text. A key feature is a downloadable workbook with explanations that expand on the on-screen content, including exercises and many links to other resources.

Because MMN is an extensive course, it’s unlikely that a student will complete it in one sitting. Once enrolled, students can return to the course repeatedly and will be able to pick up where they left off, anytime, for up to two years.

Students purchase the products from the Boat Ed or the Boat US Foundation online store, and either download the material (for BBH) or enroll and take the course online (for MMN). There needs to be no face-to-face instructor involvement.

Flotillas can share in the revenue stream generated by the MMN course. For each enrollment in MMN that a Flotilla generates, they will receive a five-dollar revenue share. Here’s how it works. When a student enrolls in the MMN course, they will have the opportunity to input a “Promo Code” when completing the online sale. Each Flotilla has its own “Promo Code”, the Flotilla number! When a student enters a Flotilla Number (in AUXDATA format, with no hyphens) as a Promo Code, that Flotilla will receive credit for that enrollment. A portion of each purchase, $5.00, will be passed to the Flotilla. So, every Flotilla can receive a revenue share from their efforts promoting this product.
