The new light weight 7x30 Navigator Pro is a product of that thinking and the boater is the beneficiary” he said.How to use the distance range reticleDivide the known height of an object by the points read on the reticle scale as seen through the binocular. Assuming the known height of the landmark is in feet the result is the range expressed in thousands of feet. Example: A lighthouse is known to be 150 feet high and appears to be 15 points on the vertical scale of the reticle. 150/15 = 10 so the distance to the lighthouse is 10000 feet.
