The Sextant could only measure latitude if I remember correctly, so maybe a horizontal bar opposed to your exact position. But this does take away some of the navigation elements of the game.
You can know longitude from the stars. Pole Star shows it
"My suggestion: On good weather conditions take the position of the ship at 12:00 o'clock and mark it on the map."
I think we need a 'Capt' log' or 'ship's logbook'. A captain need to take notes (auto, notes on the map). Marked the battles, the route, the seen ships. Maybe, showable marks on Open World could useable to navigate.
Plus: spyglas why only available in the battles? Not really useable.
