Nautical Instruments
From
a desire to travel unknown waters and conquer unknown worlds evolved the art
of navigation and the genius of nautical instruments. Mathematics, astrology
and patience are all a part of this, the foundation of all maritime travel.
Nautical instruments are a standard feature on the vessels and they come
into play in the everyday use of water craft. Nautical instruments are very
important in providing the ship captain with all of the information that is
needed in order to get the vessel from one place to another in safety. The most important thing when operating a ship is to ensure the safety of everyone that is on board. This should always be the number one concern of the boat owner and the operator of the any vessel upon the water. Thus, various nautical instruments such as hydrometers, hygrometers, surveying levels, clinometer, theodolites, barometers and barographs, plays an integral role in the process of keeping everyone safe.
