One of the tests involves sitting at the chart table, with the ports
blacked
out, and predicting your position to within a few metres.
In other words, you have to sail (and navigate) the boat "blind".
Interesting, what if any inputs do you get?
Shen
My guess is radar or gps. If you do not get any inputs you are truly
blind.
Anyone who cant run a channel with a chart & a gps or radar should not be
on a boat.
No, no, no......
You have to guess your position without *any* aids.
Oh OK. Sorta like Physic viewing. ****...... if I could do that I'd be
working for the CIA.
Thats the answer.... Lets hire a Yachtsmaster to find Ossama.
