CAPT MITTAL

FUN 1
RV one vsl coming from port quarter intensity increasing action, I said
1st call master then he said master not present( i tried to ask ans for
this he said thus is not the platform)
2- one vsl 3points on stbd bow roc exist action(he asked what is the
concept of this situation) don't know what he want to listen
3-you are following tss one vsl coming from stbd side crossing inshore
traffic zone there is shallow patch
4- 3-4 cards on towing, pair trawling, nuc in between also gave some
situations

Principle of GPS ( Keyword TRILATERATION)

2) ECDIS use. (Keyword Antigrounding Tool)
3) Hand Lead Line ( Length of both lines used in shallow and deep sea)
20 Fathoms and 100 Fathoms respectively.
4) How do you find nature of bottom with Hand Lead Line. (Cavity at
bottom of the Hand Lead Line)
5) Black out at sea none of the electronic equipments working how to
navigate without electronic equipments. (Heading-Magnetic Compass,
Position Fixing-Sextant, Depth-Hand Lead Line)
6) You are grounded by bow and you are grounded laterally, in which
case it will be easier to come out with the help of ground tackle. (Bow)
7) What is citadel?
8) What all items/ equipments you will keep in citadel?
9)In an exercise in an ISPS audit infront of surveyor, 3 of the crew
members were found missing when the Piracy alarm was raised? They
were not aware of the type of alarm and location of citadel. Action?
10) Gave me model of two buoys Lateral Port Hand and Lateral Stbd
had. Kept model of ship. Told me you are coming out of port from
Phillipines. Place the buoy accordingly.
11) Your electronic navigation equipments were not were working,
reference to point (5), and now u are approaching a land, you can
visually see land far away and some fishing vessels near by that land.
What will you do?
(Wants to hear that I will prefer anchoring, as the depth will be suitable
near by that area. Will check with Hand Lead Line, the depth, and
anchor.)
12) Baltic Moor. Full procedure. At what distance you will drop the
anchor from the berth. ( I told 70 to 100 feet from berth, as explained
by Capt. Rajeev Jassal in MySeaTime Blog) . He was happy to hear 100
feet .
13) Difference between Dangerous, Hazardous & Harmful.
14) You see oil slick at berth near you ship side at jetty. Action?
15) 20 years old ship. You are loading cargo, and have already reached
50% stages of cargo plan , but ballast is not going out. Action?
16) Vessel at berth, Master ashore, war declared , as a Mate what will
you do?
(Key point: Vessel will leave berth and anchor in outer anchorage and
will hoist White Flag, rest all normal points, ISPS level 3, Takeover as
2nd in command, Inform Company etc.)
17) Why different Loadline Zones are there?
18) Vessel touched bottom during loading, now if u do draft survey will
you get less value or more value of Displacement? (Less)
19) Principle of Gyro Compass.
20) As in Ques (16) will you leave the berth without securing and move
to anchorage? I said No. I will batten down the hatches and secure
everything. Then Capt. Sundaram said by that time one missile will hit
your vessel �
, So leave the berth first asap nd then u can do the
securing for wx. I said ok Sir �
.
21) Course 270°, West Cardinal mark ahead. (Wants to hear that you
will go on reciprocal course) ( I said I will reduce speed & take all way
off, will make no headway further, and then reverse course, coz I am in
danger water), Critical Situation, Call Master, Check charts for missed
correction.
22) Course 090°, West Cardinal buoy ahead. Action?
23) If your all the electronic navigational equipments are failed are you
NUC. I said Yes. Capt. Sundaram said no. Then he asked me the
definition of NUC. Told him the same. Then he said you can still
manoeuve with Sextant, Magnetic Compass so you are not NUC.
24) How will you communicate in such situation to the shore as in (23)
as VHF are not working. (With signalling flags).
25) Ocean currents near Australia.
26) Direction of currents in NE and late NE monsson in Arabian Sea and
Bay of Bengal.
27) Gave me paper and told me to show, whether I will go along the
coast or away from the coast, on the west and east coast of India.

Started with ROR Situation

1- (want ans in just yes or no when I tried to explain, then He said just
say yes or no)
RV 1st vsl doing 8kts 2nd vsl just astern didn't mention range doing
12kts
Ques asked were for vsl astern doing 12 kts
a-Will you alter to stbd
b- Will you alter to port
c- Will you reduce speed
Then Ques asked were for 1st right ahead vsl doing 8kts
a- will you alter to stbd
b- will you alter to port
c- will you reduce speed

2- RV vsl hear fog signal right ahead radar inoperational action

Meaning of take all way off
3- normal situation good visibility
Vsl on stbd side on 3 point ROC exist action

4- 6-7 ROR CARDS

5- Aground vsl sound signal

1) ROR cards
2) Card Buoy cylinder Green/Red/Green
3) North cardinal mark
4) Aground Vsl fog signal
5) Synoptic chart
6) TRS sign of approach
7) Eye wall weather condition
8) Dangerous Quadrant NH action
9) Passage plan as a mate
10) Duties as a C/O as per STCW
11) For loading cargo what all things you will consider
12) Aspects
13) safe speed
14) Vsl on Port side radar in operational fog signal intensity increasing
action
15) vsl on stbd bow open sea 6nm off day time ROC exist action(he
shown on slide target vsl F&A line is not parall to own ship but her bow
turned towards port side about 30deg)

How u will determine that u can give passage to overtaking v/l in

narrow channel?
Searoom ,tcpa speed of other v/l , what else ?

Who u will report in case of imdg cargo spill other than reporting
procedure given in imdg code , company charter shore coast guard ,
what else ?

. What are the factors to be taken into consideration while determining

safe speed without radar?
2. What is Range Discrimination?
3. What is IMO criteria for it?
4. PD vessel on your stbd bow?
Ans- Determine if it is crossing or overtaking by checking aspect. If
overtaking or crossing, both case I’ll alter to stbd and pass clear.
5. Then why are there two rules given?
Ans- In overtaking I have the option to go to port also.
6. CBD vsl on port bow crossing?
A- Explain 8f and give sound signal while altering (I didn’t tell fog signal)
7. Shown preferred channel to port buoy, which side will you pass
entering and exiting?
8. Light characteristics of the buoy?
Told occulting group flashing 2+1 instead of composite group flashing
�
9. Tell period of Isophase, Occulting & Flashing - Fucked up
10. RV no Radar, vessel on port bow?
A- Reduce speed to minimum so that she can be kept on the course or
take all way off.
11. How will stop your vessel and confirm?
A- Use reverse power and check propeller wake.
12. ME failure in TSS?
Told him all but he wanted in sequence-will post sequence in last
13. Vessel on stbd bow all lights visible, Tgt@20 knts and you’re at 8
knts?
A- Aspect 0 & roc doesn’t exist, I’ll check CPA and should comply with
standing order, if not increase CPA.
14. Which way will you alter to increase CPA
A- Port, as ROC doesn’t exist and ROR doesn’t apply, I can alter to any
side.

As per my understanding Sequence would be:

1. Send anchor Party Frwd
2. Inform Master, VTS & Nearby Vessels (I told this at last)
3. Display lights and shapes
4. Manoeuvre the vessel to inshore zone
5. Drop anchor half shackle to reduce speed
6. Once speed very slow completely anchor.

Situation From Sets
Got all the answers correct till now in Fun 1

Failing Question �
Situation on 19(e), continuous counter questions on what is take all
way off and various situations.... Got saturated and made blunder by
saying astern speed. Switched to Fun 2.

Started with situations all situations from his sets ditto

only thing he tries to confuse to much in between, stik to ur answer if u
know u r ryt,
specifically asking about reference length for examples lights and rv
signals for exactly 50m and 100m
for situations always ans in pattern.

after that about 15-20 night cards Dredger, Mine clearance, Trawler,
FV.

Asked 4-5 buoy cards and specifically asking pattern of light and colour
of light, also explained all patterns like
Isophase, Occulting, flash, Q flaSH etc.
(By God grace no mistake in the above he was very happy)

water so keyword is, come on to reciprocal course as it was safe, we
just came from there.)
