Why should Ground Stabilised True Motion display mode be avoided when using the ARPA for anti-collision purposes?
The Relative Motion display and relative vectors is the only display to use for anti-collision purposes.
The true vector can never give an indication of collision risk with another ship.
The collision regulations are based on ship courses through the water.

The land is always in the middle of the screen.
This is a feature only seen on radar displays.
The bridge Officer of the Watch (OOW) is plotting the ship’s position in the chartroom, when the ship is in collision with a fishing vessel. Why would the OOW be held responsible for the collision?
Under the Rules a proper lookout should be maintained at all times and by all available means.
If the OOW is busy with the safe navigation of the ship he should have exhibited the “Not under Command” signals and made other ships keep clear.
If risk of Collision existed, the fishing boat should have contacted the larger ship over the VHF before the collision took place.
Under the Rules the fishing vessel should have kept clear of larger vessels and the OOW would not be responsible.
The position of the ship provided by the GPS should always be confirmed by other means, when possible. Which of the following suggested methods would be the most accurate?

Select Relative motion display and make Own Ship vector pass through the middle of the entrance to the channel.
Acquire the buoy at the entrance to the channel and on relative vector display alter course to make the vector of the buoy pass directly through the centre of the screen.
Select ground stabilised true motion display and alter course so that own ships true vector passes through the middle of the entrance to the channel.
What would be considered the most favourable heading of a ship when launching a lifeboat?

No, the rudder should be kept amidships when going astern and there is little that can be done to reduce the swing to starboard.
The rudder can be cycled from side to side.
The rudder should be put hard to starboard to reduce the water flow to the left side of the propeller.
Who is responsible for the number and the position of any tugs to be used during a mooring operation?

Figure 3 is correct.
Figure 1 is correct.
Figure 2 is correct.
Figure 4 is correct.
Why should a Ground Stabilised True Motion radar display not be used for anti-collision purposes?
True motion does not provide the collision risk of targets as only true vectors are available.
The true vector can never give an indication of collision risk with another ship.
The “aspect” of the target is confused, so the Regulations for Preventing Collisions cannot be accurately applied.
Because this display is only ever used for navigation.

A vessel aground, more than 100 metres in length. The additional signal indicates which side the clear water lies on.
A vessel at anchor, less than 100 metres in length. She is sounding the additional signal top give warning of her position.
The Master has decided to “single up” to a spring line at each end as the last lines to let go whilst unmooring. Which of the following methods should be used to hold the lines, whilst waiting for the order to “let go”?
The line should be turned up on the bitts, fig. 1.
The line should be held on a stopper ready for immediate release, fig. 4.
The eye of the lines should be put on the bitts, fig. 2.
The line should be kept on the warping drum of a deck winch, fig. 3.
If a ship in deep water requires 2 nautical miles to “crash stop”, what will be the crash stopping distance in shallow water for the same start speed?
A greater distance.
Depends on the crash stop used.
A shorter distance.
Similar distance to deep water.
What letter is represented by this flag and what is it’s meaning when displayed by a vessel in port?
P – All persons should report on board as the vessel is about to proceed to sea.
W – All persons should report onboard as the vessel is about to proceed to sea.
S – I am operating astern propulsion.
P – I require a pilot.
The positions of the ship provided by the GPS receiver should always be verified by other means. Which of the following suggested methods would be the most accurate?
Bearing and distance from a navigational buoy.
Radar bearings of three distinctive shore objects.
A DR updated position from the last reliable one.
Radar ranges of three distinctive shore objects.
Where would the “pivot point” be considered to be located when the ship is proceeding at full speed ahead and there is no wind or current?
At amidships.
At about 1/6 of the ship’s length from the bow.
At a position near the stern of the ship.
At about 1/6 of the ship’s length from the stern.
If the radar is set onto the Relative Motion Display, what would an echo of a target with no trail indicate? Note this the trail of the echo and not a vector.
The target is stopped and making no way through the water.
The target is on the same course and speed as own ship.
The target is on a constant bearing and getting closer to own ship.
The target is on a collision course with own ship.
If a distress signal is received on board your ship, what should be the first action that should be taken?
Determine if anyone else has heard the distress signal and if your vessel is near the distress.
Attempt to establish contact with the distressed vessel.
Contact SAR Authorities via nearest coastal Radio station.
Determine how close your vessel is to the distressed vessel.
If your vessel is fitted with wires on self-stowing “split drum” winches, the advantage of having these split drum winches is:
No crushing of the wire.
Increased brake holding capacity due to the ability to keep the paid out wire in a single layer on the drum.
Less chance of the wire being jammed in the reel.
All the listed alternatives.
This vessel is encountered at the mouth of a river. According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions and the illustrated shapes, what type of vessel is it?
This is a vessel engaged in dredging or underwater operations. The two balls in a vertical line indicate the side on which an obstruction exists; the two diamonds in a vertical line indicate the side on which it is safe to pass; the ball/diamond/ ball in a vertical line indicate that the vessel is restricted in her ability to manoeuvre.

The «Navigation (NA) Operational Level» subject covers both theoretical and practical knowledge regarding safety when working with electrical equipment. Mastery of this information is a key indicator of an employee's competence in their specific role on a vessel. As a 3rd officer responsible for navigation duties, your primary tasks include assisting senior officers in planning the ship’s voyage by calculating safe passage routes, preparing navigation charts, and monitoring weather conditions. You are also responsible for conducting regular safety checks on all life-saving equipment to ensure it is in good working order, as well as operating and maintaining navigational equipment like radar, GPS, and compasses to ensure they are functioning correctly.
