🔍 Key Concepts

• Chart soundings and depth units (fathoms vs feet and how they’re shown) • How to read depths from the nearest soundings and contour lines to a plotted position • Relationship between plotted position and nearby depth curves on the chart

💭 Think About

• After plotting the given latitude and longitude, what soundings are immediately around that exact spot on the chart? • Are the soundings in fathoms or feet, and how do you correctly convert them to the units given in the answer choices? • Which contour line (e.g., 5-fm, 10-fm, etc.) is your position closest to, and does your depth fall inside or outside that contour?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm the chart’s depth units and datum (fathoms/feet and sounding datum such as mean lower low water). • Verify that you are reading the correct sounding nearest your plotted fix, not one several cables away. • Double‑check your fathom-to-feet conversion if the chart is in fathoms (1 fathom = 6 feet) before comparing to the choices.
