🔍 Key Concepts

• Speed–time–distance relationship: (Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}) • Understanding that 1 knot = 1 nautical mile per hour • Reading charted distance between buoy “CBJ” and Thimble Shoal Channel Buoy 19 in nautical miles

💭 Think About

• First, how will you find the distance between buoy “CBJ” and Buoy 19 on the chart, and in what units must that distance be? • Once you know the distance and your speed in knots, how do you calculate the travel time in hours, and then convert decimal hours to minutes? • After you get the elapsed time, how do you correctly add it to 0914 while watching for rounding (e.g., 0.3 hr vs 0.27 hr)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the distance in nautical miles between the two buoys from the chart (don’t estimate by eye). • Check your speed in knots and keep it in the same units as distance (NM and knots). • After computing time, carefully convert decimal hours to minutes and then add to 0914 without making a carrying error over the hour.
