Plot your position, lay down your course and speed and then determine which distracter is the most accurate np-5.pdf Page 1 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
2 A) INCORRECT - Depth is in feet not fathoms. B) INCORRECT - Wolf Trap Light is the closest major aid to navigation. C) CORRECT - how ever the question does not specify the length of the tow or whether you are pushing ahead, towing alongside or astern. If you drift too far south then the sunken wreck can pose a problem with your 27 foot depth tow. D) INCORRECT - You will pass NORTH of the disposal area. A) The depth of the water in your vicinity is about 38 to 40 fathoms (69.1 meters to 72.7 meters). B) The closest major aid to navigation is New Point Comfort. C) You are less than a mile from a sunken wreck which could interfere with your tow. ANSWER D) You will pass through a disposal area on your present course np-5.pdf Page 2 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
3 USCG NP-5 2) At 0315, you obtain the following bearings: Wolf Trap Light bearing 271 true Old Plantation Flats Light bearing 179 true What is the true course from this position to the entrance of York Spit Channel? Determine the position of the lights that the bearings were taken on and lay down your bearings. From this 0315 fix, lay down your course to the entrance of York Spit Channel np-5.pdf Page 3 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC

5 USCG NP-5 3) From your 0315 position, what time can you expect to reach York Spit Channel Buoys "37" and "38"? Measure off the distance to run from your 0315 fix to a point between buoys 37 and "38". You should get approximately 6.7 miles. Your speed is 8.0 knots. A) 0423 B) 0417 C) 0412 D) 0405 ANSWER Distance = Speed x Time Time = Distance / Speed Time = 6.7 / 8.0 Time = hours Time = minutes ETA np-5.pdf Page 5 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
6 USCG NP-5 4) The engineer has advised that it will be necessary to secure the gyrocompass and the electronic equipment. From your 0315 position, what is your course per standard magnetic compass to York Spit Channel Buoy "38", if there is no current?

8 USCG NP-5 5) Which chart could you use for greater detail of the area at the south end of York Spit Channel? Since the question asks for the chart detail at the SOUTH end of the York Spit Channel make sure that is the area you are looking at A) B) C) D) ANSWER np-5.pdf Page 8 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
9 USCG NP-5 6) You leave York Spit Channel at buoy "14" at 0600 with an engine speed of 12 knots. You receive orders to rendezvous with the tug "Quicksilver" and her tow at Hog Island Bell Buoy "12". What is your ETA at the rendezvous point, if you pass through Chesapeake Channel to buoy "CBJ", through the outbound traffic separation lane to buoy "NCA" (LL#375), and then to the rendezvous point? This question requires you to lay down various courses from to your rendezvous. I created a total of seven (7) legs totalling a distance of 37.3 miles. Using your engine speed of 12 knots determine your ETA from your 0600 position. Your track lines might be slightly different but the overall distance should be close. Distance = Speed x Time Time = Distance / Speed Time = 37.3 / 12 Time = hours Time = 3h 06m See the plot on the next page A) 0935 B) 0910 ANSWER C) 0850 D) np-5.pdf Page 9 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC

14 USCG NP-5 8) From your noon position, if there is no set and drift, what is your course per standard magnetic compass to the "NCA" (LL #375) buoy? Lay down your course from your 1200 postion to a point just off of buoy "NCA". You should get 209 T. Now convert that to a compass heading. A) 221 psc B) 219 psc C) 217 psc ANSWER D) 215 psc True Course 209º T Variation 10º W Magnetic 219º Deviation 2º E Compass 217º psc See the plot on the next page np-5.pdf Page 14 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC

16 USCG NP-5 9) Your gyro and electronic gear are again operating. At 1710, Chesapeake Light bears 137 pgc at 6.6 miles. The current is setting 160 T at 2 knots. At your speed of 6 knots, what is your true course to steer to remain in the inbound traffic lane? Chesapeake Light 137º G Set 160º T Gyro Error 0º 2 kts True Bearing 137º T Speed 6 kts After determining your True bearing, lay down your 1710 position. Determine your True heading to remain in the inbound traffic lane. You should get about 250 T. On your maneuvering board, plot your desired course, apply your set and drift and determine your course to steer while turning 6 knots np-5.pdf Page 16 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
17 Lay down your true heading desired (250 T) from the center of the plot. From the center of the plot lay down your Set of 160 T and Drift of 2.0 knots. From the END of the Set and Drift line swing an arc of 6.0 miles. Where it intersects your desired heading (250 T) is your course to steer. Parallel this line to the center of the plot to determine your actual course to steer (269.5 T) T 250 T Speed arc of Set 160 T A) 250 B) 261 C) 265 D) 269 ANSWER T np-5.pdf Page 17 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC

21 USCG NP-5 11) What speed have you made good from 1710 to 1810? Measure your distance run from your 1710 to your 1810 position. Since it is exactly one hour the distance measured will be your speed made good knots Note: the nearest distracter is 6.3 knots and is the obvious correct selection. However, to confirm this answer I decided to solve the vessels positon from the Chesapeake Light with the bearing and range provided in question 334. Using tht position andmy position determined for my 1810 position I then solved the course and distance between 1710 and My mercator solutions resulted in a speed of 6.17 knots. A) 6.3 knots ANSWER B) 5.5 knots C) 4.9 knots D) 4.2 knots np-5.pdf Page 21 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
22 USCG NP-5 12) If you make good a speed of 6.0 knots from your 1810 position, what is your ETA at Chesapeake Channel Lighted Bell Buoy "2C"? Measure the distance to run from your 1810 position to a point abeam of Chesapeake Channel Light Bell Buoy "2C". You should get a distance of approximately 2.3 miles. Determine your ETA with a speed made good of 6.0 knots. A) 1900 B) 1855 C) 1845 D) 1833 ANSWER Distance = Speed x Time Time = Distance / Speed Time = 2.3 / 6.0 Time = 0.38 hours Time = 23 minutes ETA np-5.pdf Page 22 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
23 USCG NP-5 13) You passed Cape Henry Light at 0730 outbound at maximum flood. What approximate current can you expect on entering Chesapeake Channel? (NOTE: outbound should probably be inbound!) Sorry, but this question is just plain dumb. First, since Chesapeake Channel is just 4-5 miles NORTH of Cape Henry Light you would obviously experience a flooding current. Since no year or date is provided no additional information can be looked up or determined from the current tables. Secondly, question 12 requests the mariner to calculate their ETA at Chesapeake Channel Lighted Bell Buoy "2C". Answer is NOW, all of a sudden we are passing Cape Henry Light at Buoy "2C" is less then 3 miles from the Chesapeake Channel entrance. What the hell have we been doing from 1833 at buoy "2C" to a point where we enter the Chesapeake Channel entrance at 0730 outbound no less? That's almost 12 full hours and now we are heading in the opposite direction with no explanation as to why. It just does NOT make sense even though the answer to this question is obvious. A) Slack before ebb B) Slack before flood C) Flood current ANSWER D) Ebb current np-5.pdf Page 23 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
24 USCG NP-5 14) The coastline by Cape Henry is best described as. Look up in the Coast Pilots the information requested about Cape Henry np-5.pdf Page 24 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
25 Page 134 sandy hills about 80 feet high A) rocky with pine scrubs B) low wetlands C) sandy hills about eighty feet high ANSWER D) low and thinly wooded with many beach houses np-5.pdf Page 25 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
26 USCG NP-5 15) Inbound, the color of Cape Henry Light will. We are INBOUND again. I guess our rudder is stuck hard over! NMC going in circles! A) INCORRECT - but it almost makes sense since we are alternating our direction inboound, outbound and inbound again. B) INCORRECT - the color will change BEFORE you reach the bell buoy NOT AFTER. C) INCORRECT - the color of the light will change to a red sector and NOT remain the same. D) CORRECT - as you approach buoy "2C" INBOUND the light will change to red. A) alternate regardless of your position B) change after you reach Chesapeake Channel Lighted Bell Buoy "2C" C) remain the same D) change before you reach Chesapeake Channel Lighted Bell Buoy "2C" ANSWER np-5.pdf Page 26 of 26 Copyright LAPWARE, LLC
