The Captain's Test.

Are you ready to take the wheel in the age of AI? A navigator never fixes position from one star. Score yourself on the six sightings — where you are now, and where your role requires you to be — and the instrument plots your displacement: the gap to close, and the bearing to steer first. Two minutes; your chart is drawn the moment you finish.

What you'll receive

A displacement chart, like this.

Your six sightings, plotted as one fix: your present position (the solid shape) against the port your role requires (the dashed line). The space between them is your displacement — the gap the instrument is built to close.

  • Your widest displacement — the bearing to steer first.
  • A per-sighting readout, with the gap on every axis.
  • A total displacement score, and what it means for your time.
  • A full reading adds work-samples and a live exercise, plotted by a navigator.
No sign-up needed to see your chart.

Send me my chart & a full reading.

This is a self-fix — one of three sightings. A full reading adds real work-samples and a live exercise (the sighting that cannot be performed), plotted by a navigator. We will send your chart and the next step.

By sending, you agree we can email your reading and follow up about a full reading — no spam, unsubscribe any time. Privacy.
