Yes, NAV skill ranks up everytime you sail. the farther the better so it doesn't matter if you have or not have the ship skill.

I'm pretty sure your ship needs a ship skill of some sort for navigation to rank

As stated above by Cornelia: navigation will gain proficiency and rise in ranks as long as you are sailing in a ship with ANY skill built into it. I reached r2 Nav while using a Sambuk with a Management-only skill.

It will get to max rather fast, but you will find it slow if you think to buy it *after* you get your ship with EA.

Better to get it ASAP, even if your ship doesn't need it, as some point you will want it.

hmmm, R10 is maximum even in Great Adventurer job :/

It's actually kinda pointless to have it favoured in Great Adventurer job since I'm sure everybody would have maxed it out to R10 by the time they get their adventure level high enough to get that job...

Unless, of course, plans exist for future ship skills or the like which we know nothing about... yet. Alternatively, maybe it's just to keep things balanced; Arms and Management are favored by their respective high-end jobs, after all. It'd be a little odd if Navigation weren't, despite how easily it can be leveled.

Of late, I have seen a new accessory called 'North America Survey Team Voyage Record' for sale in bazaars. It requires 5000 fame to equip, gives a skill boost of +1 Navigation and Provisions, but most importantly of all, it has an Item Effect of Search, meaning it cannot deteriorate at sea. I believe it to come from shipwrecks, most likely those in the vicinity of West North America, or the Northwest Passage, based on the item's name.

Exceptional Cossack kaftan gives +2 to this skill.

On another note, when Atlantis concludes and chapter 1 of the Age of Revolution update comes, the three ship skills (Navigation, Management, Arms) will have their max level cap raised to R15. New ship skills and recipes taking advantage of this will also begin to be introduced.

Skill cap for this has been raised to R15 now. While it serves little, if any, purpose for now its usefulness will shine in the next major update, Age of Revolution where their will be new (as Guilder pointed out) ship skills and recipes taking advantage of this.
