If you want to sail a course of 080, at a speed of 10 knots and you
sail thru a current having an estimated set of 140 and a drift of two
knots

for 1 asa pt.
What would be your course and speed made good?.

If you want to sail a course of 095 through a current having a set of
170 and a drift of 2.5 knots, using a speed of 12 knots

for 1 asa point
What course would you steer and what would be your speed made good?

You want to sail a course of 265 and a speed of 15 knots through a
current having a set of 185 and a drift of 3 knots
