TO BE SUBMITTED ON OR
BEFORE FINAL
PRACTICAL LEARNING OBJECTIVES
THE CADETS SHOULD BE ABLE TO :
1. USE THE SHIP’S ROUTEING SYSTEM IN TSS,
NARROW CHANNELS AND RESTRICTED
WATERS.
2. PLOT THE PLANNED TRACKS
3. SOLVE THE COMPASS ERROR
4. APPLY LEEWAY/WIND
5. APPLY CURRENT
6. PLOT RADAR VECTOR TRIANGLE
INSTRUCTION: PLOT AND SOLVE THE PROBLEM BELOW
SHOWING ALL SOLUTIONS.

SITUATION:

AFTER LOADING AT CRUISE BAY YOUR VESSEL MUST

PROCEED TO NIPA ANCHORAGE AREA FOR REFUELLING
AND SIGNING OF DEPARTURE CLEARANCE. THE VESSEL
TRAFFIC CONTROL (VTS) ADVICED YOU TO PROCEED WITH
THE FOLLOWING WAY POINTS NAVIGATIONAL TRACKS TO
AVOID ANCHORED VESSELS IN THE AREA. THE CAPTAIN
TELLS YOU TO SOLVE THE PART 1 AND PART 2 IN ORDER TO
FOLLOW THE PLANNED TRACKS GIVEN BY THE VTS ( SEE
SLIDES)
