Wherever possible ambiguity has been reduced to a minimum eg the safe side of clearing bearings are noted with an arrow and an indication of the safe bearing. Templates Two tempiates are provided. This is a reduced version of the Passage Notes criteria but can be added to or changed as required. The second is a Waypolnt and Symbol Template. This template has a three column format to allow for time estimations either side of the base ETA.

This in effect provides a means of delineating a tidal window. The symbols correspond to those outlined below and additionally a number of Dialogue Boxes which again can be used to concentrate and highlight information. See Worked Examples. Spreadsheet Software Release notes for the software version used on the accompanying disk are contained in the back pocket of the guide.

DTD: Distance to final waypoint, i. DTW: Distance to next waypoint. LAT: Latitude. LONG: Longitude. This can either be used as a simple handwritten document or as a spreadsheet on a computer. PI: Parallel Index. ROT: Rate of turn. Normally it is a course change but also can include other major events such as commencement of pilotage etc. As a further safeguard, the sigl in the bracket indicates whether the bearing of the reference object wiU be more or less when the ship is on the safe side 1.

Entrance to Port Jackson: Worked Example This passage plan illustrates how most of the requirements of the plan can be included on the chart itself. The Passage Notes are still completed but need only be referred to for Base Criteria not included in the chart template. Use is also made of constant radius turns as a means of accurate course alteration.

The use of ROT meters and ground referenced logs to execute constant radius turns is explained I briefly in Appendix 2. The section of the plan illustrated shows the approach into Port Jackson immediately after Pilot boarding. Notable features of the plan are: 1. Note that "dialogue boxes" are used to append notes to the Alert Point relieving the navigator of the need to constantly refer to the Passage Notes.

The turn into Western Channel has a constant radius of 0. The wheel over point has been deduced from the tangent points of the turn plus an allowance for the vessel's inertia. Insert the margins of safety'. Normally this will be an area either side of the vessels intended track that may be acceptable to deviate within, under normal circumstances.

In the approaches to ports as well as in some areas, however, this may be the traffic lanes already on the chart. Vessels intended track to be drawn. Wheel over positions marked on chart. Before entering restricted waters - abort points To proceed further all systems be fully operational. Also action to be taken to abort also entered E. Plans be considered main engine failure, steering loss, port or channel closures, radar failure, reduction in visibility, heavy traffic at crucial points, movement or closure of a pilot station, or any of the accidents and emergencies that can occur to a ship on passage.

Clearing bearings for hazards, and to assist in maintaining the track should be inserted onto the chart. These give a very quick method of checking that the vessel is clear of dangers Clearing ranges used to ensure that a minimum and maximum distance is maintained from a identifiable mark.

These should be considered on all vessels where pararallel indexing is not being employed and may especially beneficial when completing a turn. Open navigation menu. Close suggestions Search Search.

In this stage, the master of the ship discusses with the chief navigating officer usually the Second Mate , as to how he intends to sail to the destination port.

In some cases it may be required for the master to plan the passage. This is the process of gathering all information relevant to the proposed passage, including ascertaining risks and assessing its critical areas. This involves information extracted from publications as well as those within the chart. The appraisal will include details from:. For the ease of planning, this plan is first laid out on a small scale chart, which is later transferred to larger scale charts, and then minor modifications are made as and when deemed necessary.

Having made a full appraisal using all information at hand pertaining to the passage, the OOW, under the authority of the Master is to prepare a detailed plan for the passage. In this stage, the intended courses of the ships are actually laid out on the charts of suitable scale and all additional information is marked.

The plan is laid out from pier to pier, including the pilotage waters. It is a good practice to mark dangerous areas such as nearby wrecks, shallow water, reefs, small islands, emergency anchorage positions, and any other information that might aid safe navigation.

In addition to the above-mentioned things, is it advisable to layout the rate of turn for waypoints and laying out of PI ranges for suitable objects, if any.
