A la HRB de llegada a Ceuta, atracan en un atraque del Club Náutico CAS con sonda de la carta= 2 metros, siendo el calado máximo del yate= 2 metros. Obtenido del Anuario de mareas los datos siguientes: Altura de la bajamar más próxima= 0,29 metros y corrección aditiva para el intervalo de llegada= 0,33 metros, proceden a calcular la sonda bajo quilla en ese instante:On arrival at Ceuta, they berth at the Club Náutico CAS with a charted sounding = 2 metres, the yacht’s maximum draught being 2 metres. From the Tide Tables: height of nearest low water = 0.29 metres and additive correction for the arrival interval = 0.33 metres. They work out the water under the keel at that moment:
Show the answer
Correct answer: a) 0.62 m.
Why it is correct
2 + 0.29 + 0.33 − 2 = 0.62 m.
Why the others are not
- b) The result is different.
- c) The result is different.
- d) The result is different.
How to work it out in the exam
- Water under the keel = charted sounding + height of tide − draught.
- The height of tide is the low water plus the additive correction from the Anuario.
