2.05 + 0.54 + 1.00 − 2.10 = 1.49 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.
