🔍 Key Concepts

• Effect of wind direction on wave direction and breaking in shallow or shoaling water • How shoals and bottom contours near Cape Charles can affect sea conditions in heavy weather • Difference between physical sea conditions and aids to navigation / radio services when reading multiple-choice answers

💭 Think About

• Look at the wind direction (northeasterly). From which general direction will the waves be coming, and where along the track will those seas become steep or break? • Think about whether the question is asking about something that is always true (like fixed radio frequencies) or something that depends on the specific wind and sea conditions along that track line. • On a chart of the Cape Charles area, where are the shallow banks and shoals relative to R"14" and your track, and how would heavy seas interact with them?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which answer choices depend directly on weather and sea state rather than fixed equipment or published characteristics. • Mentally plot or sketch the wind direction, track line, and shoal areas to see where seas are most likely to be hazardous. • Check whether anything in the choices would require an obscured light sector or buoy off-station, and ask if heavy northeasterly weather alone makes that automatically likely.
