About the Author
Judith F. Layne is a seasoned navigator and maritime educator with over two decades of experience sailing the world's oceans, from the Atlantic's challenging waters to the Pacific's vast expanses. Her passion for celestial navigation stems from her early days as a yacht captain, where she mastered the art of using traditional tools to find one's way under the stars. As an author, Layne demystifies complex nautical techniques for novices, drawing on her practical expertise to empower readers with the confidence to explore the seas independently. She holds a degree in Oceanography from the University of Southampton and has contributed to sailing magazines worldwide. When not at sea or writing, she teaches navigation workshops and advocates for sustainable maritime practices.
