Question 4179 Deck General

The correct answer is D) 40 yards. The transfer for a turn of 30° can be determined from the maneuvering characteristics shown in the illustration D035DG. The transfer is the distance the vessel moves perpendicular to the original course during the turn. From the illustration, the transfer for a 30° turn is approximately 40 yards. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not match the value shown in the illustration for a 30° turn. Option A (140 yards) and Option B (190 yards) are significantly larger than the actual transfer, while Option C (230 yards) is even more inaccurate.
