Q

Your voyage planning indicates you will arrive at a waypoint in longitude 049°16.3' W at 0947 ZT on 3 March 1988. How should this date be entered into an AMVER report?

🔍 Key Concepts

• AMVER date-time format used in ocean reports • Difference between Zone Time (ZT) and UTC/Zulu time • How dates from the 1st–9th of the month are written in 6‑digit groups

💭 Think About

• Is the AMVER date field looking for day + time or time + month abbreviation or some other pattern? • How are single‑digit days (1–9 of the month) written in a compact numeric group—do they keep or drop the leading zero? • Does AMVER want the zone designator (P/Z/etc.) included in the date group, or is that handled somewhere else in the report?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice matches the standard DDHHMM numeric pattern with no letters or spaces. • Check whether any option incorrectly mixes a month abbreviation into a field that should be purely numeric. • Verify that any zone or Zulu suffix (like P or Z) is not incorrectly attached to what should be just the date-time group.
