16
Q

What restriction do you have whenever you shift to INS navigation?

A

INS may only be used for up to 8 hours when GPS is not updating INS. After 8 hours, celestial is more accurate than INS and will be used.

17
Q

Can we utilize commercial GPS?

A

Only in emergencies after the failure of all GPS receivers

18
Q

Recreate the Fix Accuracy and MAX Fix Interval table.

A

AREA Distance from land/shoal GPS FOM Max Fix Interval

Restricted < 2 NM FOM <= 2 3 min
Piloting 2 -10 NM FOM <= 4 3-15 mins as cond. warrant
Coastal 10 – 30 NM FOM <= 6 15-30 mins as cond. warrant
Open Ocean > 30 NM FOM <= 7 30 mins or as cond. warrant

19
Q

Is “Restricted Waters” only defined by the above table?

A

No – it is also defined as any waters less thant eh ship’s Safety Depth

20
Q

List the different Estimated Position Errors (meters) for each FOM

A 
FOM	Meters
1	<= 25
2	25 – 50
3	50 – 75
4	75 – 100
5 	100 – 200

23
Q

How often must gyrocompass repeater error by updated?

A

Daily

24
Q

Q

Discuss the requirements for checklists for navigation evolutions.

A

Use is required

Maintain onboard for 1 year
