The Tudors navigated their exploring boats primarily using celestial navigation, relying on the position of the sun and stars. They utilized instruments like the astrolabe and quadrant to measure angles and determine latitude. Additionally, they often employed maps, known as portolan charts, which provided detailed coastal information. Mariners would also rely on dead reckoning, estimating their position based on speed, time, and direction traveled.
