🔍 Key Concepts

• Turning circle components: advance vs transfer • Location and role of the pivoting point when a ship turns • Difference between lateral movement and movement along the original course line

💭 Think About

• Visualize a vessel on a straight course: when you put the rudder over, how far does it continue in the original forward direction before it is well into the turn? • Which term is used for sideways displacement off the original track, and which is used for forward movement along the original track? • Is the pivoting point a distance measurement or a physical point on the vessel?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option refers to distance measured along the original course line during a turn • Identify which option refers to sideways distance off the original track during a turn • Confirm that the choice you pick is a distance, not an angle or a point on the ship
