Question 4173Deck General70% to pass
You have determined the maneuvering characteristics of your vessel by taking the radar ranges and bearings of an isolated light while making a turn. The results are shown in illustration D035DG below. What is the transfer for a turn of 60°?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 140 yards (126 meters).
The transfer for a turn of 60 degrees can be determined from the maneuvering characteristics data shown in the illustration. The transfer is the distance the vessel moves perpendicular to the original course line during the turn. Based on the information provided, the transfer for a 60-degree turn is 140 yards (126 meters).
The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the transfer distance for a 60-degree turn based on the maneuvering characteristics data given in the illustration.
