Excellent clear instructions

This would have been much better if you showed where the tide deviation was from, how the 6 knot speed was plotted .

Clear and concise. Thank you

nice clear explanation

Clear explanation but doesn't show how did u find tidal stream n others....

Yes, refreshingly very clear, as is the other one on Estimated Position, thanks.

Thanks Paul.

excellent

Thank you.

Does not show how to plot the final course... :(

How did you know where the tide was flowing and it’s speed ?

He would have used the closest tidal diamond on the chart. I guess he tried to simplify the video.

@@michaelsrowland A diamond shaped icon that is marked on a chart. They're given letters A-Z, the relevant tidal rate for each one is given on the chart.

Why do you u want it in compass form? Ive seen some videos of using magnetic instead.

Sam, many thanks for your comments and I hope you are enjoying the videos. In this example we use use Compass Course to illustrate that when we plot the Course to Steer on the chart in degrees true we want to convert it. So we want to take account of both Magnetic Variation, and Magnetic Deviation in order to convert the course to steer from degrees true (The Chart) to degrees Compass . The Compass course is what thel the person on the helm will aim to steer. In the RYA Day Skipper course the distinction is made between degrees Magnetic and Degrees Compass. The degrees Magnetic excludes an adjustment to Magnateic Deviation, which the boat may be subject to, and is used in many of the Day Skipper exercises. You will find the Deviation card for the RYA boat at the back of the RYA Training Almanac. I hope that helps, and thank you for watching.

Not good you need to use a pointer or folks get confused

Poor video for beginners, needs to explain much better.
