■ Mark on this model boat the following features
BOW, STERN, PORT, STARBOARD, WINDWARD SIDE, LEEWARD SIDE
■ Identify 4 Distress signals that are commonly used on a small boat.
a. The arm signal b. A smoke signal c. Flag signal: Letter N & C together or Square flag & ball d. Dye marker
■ Match the Fire Extinguisher with the types of fire each would be most useful for putting out by drawing out by drawing lines between the correct pairs,
Dry Powder – Engine / Water – Wood / Carbon Dioxide - Electrical
■ Explain 2 safety precautions one would take when using a fire extinguisher.
a. Check whether it’s appropriate for the type of fire
b. Make sure that all the electricity thinng is off.
■ Identify the following diagrams and explain the function of each,
1. Battery: Mainly 12V and gives spark for engine ignition. And also it gives power to electric devices including GPS Navigation system, echo sounder and radar. It is quite desirable to keep separate battery for use rather than using one.
2. Anchor / Danforth: A means of mooring the boat at sea temporarily and a useful maneuvering aid.
3. Bucket: Quite useful tool on a boat! Could be used as a fire extinguisher, water container, washing down, manual water pump and many more.
4. Boat hook: To pick something on water, pushing or pulling other boat, reaching for a rope when mooring at harbor and rescue use.
5. Rope: Rescue & Mooring.
6. Oar: Secondary propulsion in powerboat or main propulsion in a boat without a motor.
7. Compass: A navigation aid which tells you the direction, indispensable for night and ocean sailing with poor visibility.
8. Radio: A communication device and you need a call sign for it.
■ If you were at Position X, Give your potion by 2 methods.
a. Triangular compass bearing
Find three visible landmarks and get direction using compass. Draw lines from the mark on the chart then you will get a triangular are called ........(I forgot the name.) Also you could check the depth and check contour line on the chart to get your position.
b. GPS
■ What do the following symbols indicate on the chart?
a.Rock that is always under water
b.Rock(awash) - Rock that is almost same height as water level
■ Circle on the chart –
a. Rock that covers and uncovers with the tide - Probably in the small cirlce. Symbol for this rock is as below, but hardly recognizable in the chart.
b. A power cable - Wobbled line in the red circle.
■ What would be the time and height of low water on the morning of May 16?
0935 / 1.1
■ If the chartered symbol was +(2 1), what would be the actual amount of water over the rock at high tide on the morning of June 1?
Guessing,,
+ means a rock that is always under water and I think (2 1) means the distance between the rock and water level.
So, then, on the morning of June 1 is 1.3, that makes 3.4, I think.
■ A strong wind blowing against the tide causes the sea to be at greater disturbance with elevated height.
Wind creates wave, so it's about wave against tide.
■ Name 2 sources of a marine weather forecast.
a. VHF: Channel 16 VHF radio: Maritime New Zealand maritime radio service
b. Nowcast
c. MetPhone – dial 0900 999 + map area number
■ What is one feature that differs in a marine forecast from a land forecast?
Wind speeds over the sea are frequently much stronger than those reported in land forecast.
■ What could be a likely effect when wind, flow through a narrow passage?
Goes faster with lower pressure,,
■ If the weather and sea state suddenly turned rough, describe 3 effects that you would have to consider as a crew member, to ensure the safety of your boat and the crew.
a. Check for weather forecast update
b. Cehck for nearest port of distress
c. Maket sure that everyone gets PFD and check for emergency gear.
■ As a crew member on a boat, what would be your response in the following situations,
a. A fire broke out in the bow of the boat.
Shout fire so that everyone could be alert and tries to put it out with firefighting gear(fire extinguisher, water) while skipper set the bow at leeward direction so that fire doesn't get bigger.
If it's hard to put it out and expected to keep burning, call for help with whatever means you have and prepare for evacuation.
b. The boat was holed, and taking on water 1/2 mile from shore.
Alert everyone in the boat and report it to skipper and coastguard. Since it's not away from shore, head back to port while trying to stop or slwoing water from getting in the boat. Also be prepared for evacuation with safety gear.
c. A person fall overboard.
Shout MOB, everyone should be alerted and trying to find MOB's position. Skipper should set the engine neutral and make a turn back to MOB. Slowly approach to MOB and get him.
d. A person on board shows symptoms of hypothermia.
Report the incident to skipper and check for symptoms. Report it to skipper and coastguard for help.
Head back to the port whille treat him or her with food or drink with high calories.
■ Name 2 circumstances that would cause you to use a distress signal.
a. engine trouble
b. Injury
■ How would you call for search and rescue assistance?
a. Mobile whithin its range
b. Radio communication
■ If you needed to call for search & rescue assistance, name 3 thing that you could do to assist the rescuers
a.Name of a vessel
b.current postion
c.POB, number of people on board.
■ Ropes & Knots
a. Reef Knot
b. Bowline
c. Sheetbend
d. Clove Hitch
e. Round turn and 2 half hitches
f. Anchor Bend
g. Rolling Hitch
h. Figure 8 knot
■ Buoyage
Draw the correct path into the harbour around these markers.

What is the colour of a port hand buoy or beacon?
Red
■ Water Recreation Regulations.
a. A vessel must reduce speed to 5 knots or less.
- Within 200 meters of vessel flying ALPHA flag. This flag indicates that I have a diver down.

What are 2 rules that apply to ski boats?

f. Some local authorities have regulations covering life jackets. Even if this is not mandatory in every area, it is generally agreed as a safety measure that each boat should
■ Collision Regulations.
a. You are at the wheel of the boat in the foreground.(A).
What would you be your FIRST actions on sighting the other boat?
Check whether we are in collision course; Check approaching vessel's compass bearing, EBL(Radar), sighting approaching vessel across fitting on the deck.
- In after short time this was the situation.
Are you on a collision course? Y
How can you tell?
Sighting approaching vessel across fitting on the deck is almost the same after short time, so it's in collsion coruse.
Which boat must give way? Not sure,
just regard it a head on situation and make a starboard.
What should you (in Boat A) do to avoid a collision?
Simply slow down and make a right(starboard)
What should the other boat do in this situation?
Look-out, slow down, make a right(Starboard)
b. In each of these situations, a risk of collision exists. In each diagram, draw the path you would take, that would be best avoid collision. In each situation you are on Boat A – The black boat
1.A, with same tack, but on windward, takes avoiding action.
2.A, with a motor, takes an avoiding action to make a starborad
3.A, keeps the course, B takes avoiding action.
4.A, overtaking vessel kepps out ot the way to starboard.
5.A takes avoiding action, starboard
6. Each boat make a starboard.
