    How is it possible to be so eloquent in delivery in EVERY SINGLE VIDEO you do.? Quite amazing and humbling. TRUE... lol

    It's awesome, thank you for uploading!

      Really interesting the many similarities in navigation between aviation and marine. We use different compasses and other aids at sea but the basics are the same. Never knew that.

    I just got home from my navigation and charting course. You are the bomb. I learned more in your short youtube video than I have learned in 3 hours in class. You are a great teacher. I will position TVMDC vertically rather than horizontally .. yours makes much more sense. + whiskey - ethics rather than East is least and West is best or the other way around. Going up and down the chart is so much easier to understand. Thank you !!

  • @fransdriesen1311
    @fransdriesen1311 Před rokem

    In my days (way back then) we used the following mnemonic.. which is easier to remember..
    "From BAD to GOOD all is GOOD....From GOOD to BAD reverse the MATH"
    GOOD is the way you add the Dev and Var, East is plus and West is min..
    GOOD stands for chart and BAD stands for compass...
    In fact the original mnemonic was (in Dutch) was:
    "Van de kwaaie naar de goeie moet ge der niet aan knoeien, van de goeie naar de kwaaie moet ge het teken omdraaien"

    Why we always add east in case of getting true course from compass course,why not substract

  • @fullthrottlequad
    @fullthrottlequad Před 5 lety

    Is this lesson to correct the compass for declination? i g as if i live in New Orleans my compass does not need adjusting w/ magnetic North an True North. But if I move to the East coast, I subtract 6 degrees from magnetic in order to be with True North? I still do not understand about Block Island. Are you saying the vessel is very close to it? Therefor, to adjust for declination 15 degrees? Then punch in the numbers of the rest. Then shoot my azimuth to go from Block Island to the next destination?

  • @MobileLegends-lv3ce

  • @hugomcnestry831
    @hugomcnestry831 Před 6 lety +2

    Does it matter that the deviation table is read both ways ie from PSC AND/OR from the Magnetic heading? IE If going from True you take variation and then the result (T+ Var= Mag) is the number to read on the deviation table. BUT if going from PSC then that is the number to read on the deviation table. (PSC+ dev = Mag) So if deviation correction was large then you would get a different result going down and up?

    • @uscaptainstraining
      @uscaptainstraining  Před 6 lety

      Hugo McNestry I know what you mean, good point. In these problems deviation is never more than 4 degrees so it works.

  • @frenzelronquillo1684
    @frenzelronquillo1684 Před 3 lety +1

    Got a question. Does your deviation table applies only in certain area?In case you are going to a different place and the value of your variation changes, are you still going to apply that deviation table or u need to calculate the actual deviation?

    • @uscaptainstraining
      @uscaptainstraining  Před 9 měsíci

      That is a very good question. It sounds like you already understand that Deviation is based on your ship's heading and Variation is based on the ship's location on the planet. Maybe in extreme variation differences you would need to create a new deviation table but my best guess is that the differences would be negligible. 🤔

      @eitanavni-heller7774 Před 2 lety

      As said in the video at 3:40, when going from true to compass, it is plus west, minus east. Going from compass to true, it is add east, subtract west. Depends on which way you are converting. Hope this helps.
