🔍 Key Concepts

• Relative bearing vs. true bearing when an object is abeam to port • Converting from true course to standard magnetic compass course using variation and deviation • Understanding that "abeam to port at 1 mile" describes a specific relative position from your track line

💭 Think About

• When a buoy is abeam to port, what is its relative bearing from your vessel? How does that relate to your ship’s heading? • On your chart, draw a line from your 0430 position to the point where the buoy will be abeam to port at 1 mile. What is the true course along that line? • Once you know the true course, how do you step-by-step convert it to a standard magnetic compass course using the given variation and deviation on the chart/table?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you are using the relative bearing for abeam to port (not ahead, astern, or starboard). • Confirm your sequence of corrections: True → Magnetic (using variation) → Compass (using deviation), paying attention to E/W signs. • Verify the distance off is exactly 1.0 NM on the beam when the buoy is abeam, not closer or farther.
