    Excellent description! Clear and concise explanation of how to stay on a true course.

    Great tutorial, however I was taught, and I thought it was convention, that the ground track was indicated by 2 arrows ( 2 feet on the ground ) and the water track by one arrow.

    • @kenlee-97
      @kenlee-97 Před rokem

      Bur 1 arrow can also mean the d.r. position, and 2 arrows signify the water track or e.p. (estimated position).

    Thanks!, nice video, but ground tracks (Course over ground or course made good - however you call it) is denoted with 2 arrows. Instead, water tracks ( Course to Steer or Heading) shall be denoted with 1 arrow. If your helmsman follows that plot, eventually would end east off your intended destination.

    • @olisimmons2785
      @olisimmons2785 Před 10 měsíci +3

      Agreed; "2 Feet on the Ground" means 2 for Ground track.
      > = CTS
      >> =Ground Track
      >>> = Tidal vector.

    Excellent, simple presentation. With one exception. Are you using proper terms? Tide is the vertical movement of water. Current is the horizontal movement of water. Given how often those terms are used in error, I completely understand how that crept into your otherwise superb presentation.

    Great sir but i didn't not understand why are you Put singal arrow for Ground track because group track two arrow and WT is a Single Track.

  • @KingstoneS318
    @KingstoneS318 Před 2 lety

    Love your videos and very clear explanations, just one thing l cant seem to know why if you can enlighten me pls, when a tide is always involved in a true course, as well as the magnetic variation which we should steer to, however in short distances can we just hold the tiller or the wheel on the course to steer, rather than claculate the tides? If we hold steady we should be on course no matter what the tide is doing... theoreticlly can we? Physically maybe not ideal too tiring etc... thank you

  • @hollandcollegemarinecentre9737

    @CasualNavigationAcademy great video but this contradicts your video on "working with set and drift on a nautical chart". It should be two arrows for course over ground, one arrow for course to steer!

  • @johnanderson-xo6pt
    @johnanderson-xo6pt Před rokem

    Your explanations are so easy to follow, I love them. However I believe that at 3 min 55 sec you say that after 1 hr you will be at the end of your construction triangle. Just to make sure I completely understand this I don't think you will, as you SOG will have been 7.2 kts so you will be 0.8 N.M. short?

    What does the arrows in the set of tide means? Thanks

    • @sarahlong5886
      @sarahlong5886 Před rokem

      Three arrows just differentiates it from the water track (one arrow, it's the only error in the video) and the ground track (two arrows), nothing more complex than that. You can remember it by the ground track needing two feet on the ground, and the tide track is the most complicated so it gets three. Then only the water track is left, so gets one arrow.

  • @-BKR-

    why have you illustrated the water and ground track the wrong way round

  • @tonyvokes935
    @tonyvokes935 Před 11 měsíci

    You've got your arrows wrong - 2 arrows for over the ground,1 arrow for course to steer and your tide only lasts for half the distance!

  • @TheTraderzz
    @TheTraderzz Před rokem

    i guess the arrows are wrong for corse to steer we put single arrow on the line and for Course over ground we put 2 arrows
