Year: 2000 Language: english Author: I Smith and R A Mulroney Publisher: Warsash Publishing Edition: 2000 ISBN: 0 948646 55 1 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages + text layer Pages count: 50 Description: Investigations of casualties involving the grounding of ships, when radar was being used as an aid to navigation, have indicated that a factor contributing to the grounding was the lack of adequate monitoring of the ship's position during the period oftime leading up to the casualty. Valuable assistance to position monitoring in relation to a predetermined navigation plan could have been given in such cases if the bridge personnel had used the techniques of Parallel Index Plotting on the radar display. Such techniques should be practised in clear weather during straightforward passages, so that bridge personnel become thoroughly familiar with this technique before attempting it in confined and difficult passages, or at night, or in restricted visibility.
