Description
The Weems & Plath Nautical Slide Rule is a traditional maritime navigation tool designed to make conversions between speed, time and distance simple and efficient. This slide rule calculator is designed with clear, easy-to-read scales that allow you to calculate parameters such as distance traveled, estimated time of arrival or desired speed – all using simple sliding operations.
The Nautical Slide Rule is particularly useful for manual navigation, voyage planning, estimating ETA/ETD or for control calculations in combination with modern electronic aids. The tool provides a good understanding of the relationship between time, speed and distance – a skill that is still valuable in traditional navigation.
The tool is made of robust material with clear markings and scales, allowing it to be used on board in demanding conditions. Weems & Plath are renowned for the quality and functionality of their navigation products and this slide rule version is a timeless addition to any navigator’s toolbox.
