Practicals
Anchoring, coming along side the berth and leaving, practicing the different types of knots and wire splices, use of magnetic compass, GPS, Echo-sounder. CHART WORK-Finding positions by latitudes and longitudes by position lines by cross bearing, horizontal sextant, angles, vertical sextant angle and by running fix, finding position by speed, distance and time findings set and drift of current and findings course made good speed made good and steering course and finding position by counter acting the current observation of RADAR .
