🔍 Key Concepts

• Running fix and course made good (CMG) between known fixes • Relationship between depth contours (fathom curves) and your plotted position • Using radar range and bearing from your 0500 fix to identify nearby buoys and hazards

💭 Think About

• From your plotted 0500 position, which charted features (buoys, contours, shoals) are close enough that a small plotting error would clearly show up? • If you draw the track line between 0445 and 0500, what does the actual line on the chart tell you about CMG compared to any planned course? • Look at Southwest Ledge Shoal: is your 0500 position placing you on a safe side of it, or would a turn to port move you closer to or farther from the danger?

✅ Before You Answer

• Double-check the plotted 0500 fix and measure the actual course made good between 0445 and 0500 with your parallel rulers or triangles. • Measure the radial distance and bearing from your 0500 fix to buoy "2A" and compare it with the stated 020°T at 4.8 miles. • Confirm whether your 0500 position is inshore or seaward of the 120 fathom curve by carefully inspecting the nearest depth contour labels.

Question 1 of 20

Based on your 0500 fix, which statement is TRUE?

A radar contact bearing 020°T at 4.8 miles is buoy "2A".

The course made good between 0445 and 0500 was 345°T.

You are seaward of the 120 fathom curve.

You should alter course to port to clear Southwest Ledge Shoal.
