🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between true bearing and relative bearing • How to convert a relative bearing to a true bearing using ship’s true course • Understanding whether the relative bearing is measured clockwise from the bow

💭 Think About

• Is the relative bearing measured from your ship’s heading or from true north? How does that affect the calculation? • Given your true course of 222°T, in which direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) do you apply the relative bearing of 025°? • After combining course and relative bearing, what must you do to keep the final bearing within the 0°–359° range?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm that relative bearing is measured from the ship’s heading forward, clockwise from the bow (0° at the bow) • Make sure you are adding or subtracting the relative bearing in the correct direction based on how it’s defined • After calculating, normalize the result if it is ≥ 360° or < 0° to get a valid true bearing
