dont think a sextant will be easy to pick up as people seem to know the value of them now - also, be VERY careful on the optics as you only have one set of eyes.

You are best buying a used example from a reputable dealer who is prepared to stand behind his merchandise, rather than spending 3-600 "as seen" in the classified ads.

One possible contact is Stokey Woodall who teaches "quick astro" and seems to always have some good used examples to sell on

Good luck

Another site is boatsandoutboards.co.uk

How anyone starts up these websites and gets users is amazing as there is no advertising only forums like this.
