Subject: And ???????
From: "Donal" My answer was also fairly serious. You sit at the chart table, give directions to the crew, and you have to estimate your position after 1/2 an hour, or so. I'm sure that you may ask the helmsman to confirm the compass reading, but apart from that you have no feedback. I don't know what accuracy is required to obtain a pass. I suspect that the examiner takes the conditions into account. Regards Donal Ouch! If you have to guess wind, currents, vessel speeds, set and drift, with no inputs of any kind, this would indeed be difficult to do with any degree of accuracy. Shen |
