At the time of your 1245 position, which statement is TRUE?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Chart symbols and dangers (reefs, depth contours, and marked danger areas) • Difference between International and Inland Rules of the Road and where each applies • Using a drifted/fixed position on a chart to estimate bearings, ranges, and expected depth

💭 Think About

• From your 1245 plotted position, what are the approximate range and relative bearing to Bradford Reef? Would it really be on the starboard bow at about 5.7 miles? • Look at the charted depth at your 1245 position and convert it to feet. Does that value seem close to 47 feet? • Check the geographic area of the problem. Are you in waters where International Rules apply, Inland Rules apply, or a boundary zone?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact charted depth at the 1245 position (and units: fathoms vs feet or meters) • Confirm whether your position lies inside any charted danger area or just near one • Check the demarcation line on the chart or in the problem statement to determine if International or Inland Rules are in effect
