	Master Mariner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In early days a Master Mariner was expected to be proficient in the application of a barometer, chronometer, and sextant to direct a sailing ship on a mapped course across the open ocean waters.
		In the Royal Navy in the days of sail, "master" was often used as an abbreviation for the Sailing Master, the warrant officer responsible for the navigation and steering of the vessel.
		The Master's Mates were the assistants to the Sailing Master, also warrant officers, and were usually young men with family connections not quite good enough to become midshipmen who either aspired to become sailing masters themselves or to be commissioned as lieutenants, as often happened.
