primary responsibility is to safely navigate vessel from point A to point B OOW should be familiar with:
Vessels handling characteristics & particulars Rules and Regulations Navigation and Navigational Aids/Equipment Keeping proper lookout & Radio Etiquette Company and Masters Standing Orders

Record Keeping
Record keeping aboard a vessel is used for a permanent document and legal record. OOW should always consult Master on required entries or format. Records should be kept: In black or red ink Information should be kept in 24 hr intervals Do not erase or use white out in log Correct with a single line and initial Keep all entries legible Print entries, do not use non-maritime abbreviations
7 3/3/2013
Record Keeping
The OOW will be responsible for various types of logs aboard ship. These log should be accurately and reasonable log the daily events. Logs are permanent documents that may be used as legal record. In fact, CFR requires certain logs to record specific information and be kept for specified period of time

Record Keeping
Deck Log
OOW keeps this daily record of days activity The OOW must sign log Use Black or Red ink The Master will review the deck log
9 3/3/2013
Record Keeping
Deck Logs should record the following usually daily activity in black ink:
Courses or Course Changes Speeds or Speed Changes Positions and how position is determined Weather Vessels name, passage, date Or other generic information needed to be recorded

Bell Book
OOW records all engine orders, major navigational aids, demarcation lines, etc Bell Book Log is used as a rough log that helps the OOW write the deck log

Turning Diagram

Turning Diagram
Turning Circle-the path described by the ships center of gravity when turning. A full 360 with constant rudder angle and speed. The turning circle will vary with amounts of rudder and with speed used and in size and shape.
19 3/3/2013
Turning Diagram
Pivot Point-the point of rotation within the ship as she makes a turn or the position on the centerline where the drift angle is zero. This point is generally about one-third the length of the ship from the bow. Advance-is the distance gained in the direction the same as that of the original course from the time the rudder is put over until the ship has turned through 90.
20 3/3/2013
Turning Diagram
Transfer-is the distance gained in a direction perpendicular to that of the original course from the time the rudder is put over until the ship has turned through 90. Tactical Diagram-for any amount of constant rudder angle, the tactical diameter is the distance made good in a direction perpendicular to that of the original course line from the time the rudder is put over until the ship is on a reverse heading. AKA the transfer for a turn of 180.
21 3/3/2013
Turning Diagram
Final Diameter-diameter of a circle ultimately scribed by a ship that continues to circle with a constant rudder angle. Drift Angle-angle at any point on a turning circle between intersection of the tangent at that point and a ships keel line. Kick-the momentary movement of the ship toward the side opposite the direction of the turn.

Review all rules. At this point you should understand rules. You should have completed MART 321 prior to this course. You will be required to use the COLREGS as a guideline for decision making in the simulator.
