| Take a bearing on a charted object. In the drawing, the church steeple bears about 236 degrees. |
 |
| Plot the bearing on the chart. Use a course plotter or parallel ruler to draw the line at 236°. Label this plotted line of position with the time and direction of the bearing. |
 |
| Take another bearing on a second object. Plot and label the line of position. |
 |
| Plot a fix where the lines of position intersect. That's your position! |
