• To take a bearing and range with the radar we use the functions:
• The Automatic Identification System (AIS) can provide:
• On 10 July 2024 departing Barbate port entrance light with an East wind causing 15º leeway, calculate the compass course to pass 5 miles off Punta Paloma lighthouse (chart dm 4º W 2012 (5' E), deviation +9º):
• At HRB 08:15 in position 35º 50.0' N, 005º 10.0' W you set course for Algeciras (red breakwater light) with an East wind causing 12º leeway (variation 2º NW, deviation –8º). Calculate the compass course Ra:
• On 10 July 2024 we are at 37° 30.0′ N, 002° 05.0′ E and set course for a point at 35º 39.0´ N and 002º 40.0´W. Calculate the true course to reach that point (to the nearest degree).
