🔍 Key Concepts

• Buoy "12" in Thimble Shoal Channel – where it lies relative to the main channel and auxiliary channels • How inbound vs outbound traffic is normally arranged in a dredged ship channel with auxiliary channels • Charted controlling depth and depth contours in and around the main channel at that buoy

💭 Think About

• Look at a current chart of Thimble Shoal Channel and locate buoy "12". Which side of the channel are you on when you pass it to port? • From that position, which channel (main, North Auxiliary, or South Auxiliary) is logically aligned for an outbound vessel that has just entered via Thimble Shoal Channel? • Check the soundings and controlling depth in the area by buoy "12". Do they exactly match the depth stated in one of the choices or is that figure misleading?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the charted position of buoy "12" relative to the main Thimble Shoal Channel and the auxiliary channels • Confirm the direction of inbound and outbound traffic flow that the chart and notes indicate for each channel • Check the soundings and controlling depth around buoy "12" to see if any answer choice is clearly inconsistent with the charted depths
