Why is it masculine?

Navigateur is masculine because it derives from the Latin "navigātor," which is a masculine agent noun formed from "navigāre" (to sail), and Latin agent nouns ending in "-ātor" are inherently masculine in gender. This masculine gender was preserved when the word entered French and continues to follow the pattern of French masculine nouns ending in "-ateur."
