• Which way must a weight on the main deck move to correct a heel to starboard and reduce trim by the stern?
• On activating the SART, mark the CORRECT option:
• If a weather warning says FOG, visibility will be:
• Differences in sea water temperature and salinity between areas and depths create a current called:
• Altocumulus belong to:
• Geostrophic wind adds to Eulerian wind:
• The wind in which centrifugal force balances the pressure gradient is called:
• The true bearing of an object is obtained:
• When will two vessels sailing in the same area have the same total correction?
• If the true course equals the water track, we can conclude without doubt that:
• What is compass deviation?
• What are the two kinds of official electronic nautical charts that may be carried?

• On the Isla de Tarifa–Punta Cires opposition at 3 miles from Punta Cires, you head for Cape Trafalgar in a SSW current of 3.5 knots and a South wind giving 3º leeway (Vm = 9 knots, CT = +1º). Find Ra and Vef:
• Compute analytically the rhumb-line course and distance from initial position 36º 46' N, 010º 30' W to final position 33º 40' N, 008º 35' W:
• Compute analytically the arrival longitude after sailing 300 miles on true course 154º from latitude 36º 50.2' N, longitude 123º 13.0' E:
• At 11:15 ship’s time in 36º 11' N, 005º 11' W, you steer Ra = 190º at 10 knots (Ct = −2.5º) with a SE wind giving 3º leeway and a SW current of 3 knots. What are the course and speed made good?
