Answer 172

learned skills of timing and execution of planned maneuvers based on observation of all forces working on a ship - professional ship handler can detect/correct with deviations from a plan

Answer 173

direct from bridge - engine, propeller, rudder, thrust, auxiliary power remote control - tugs, lines, anchor not controlled - wind, current, channel configuration

Answer 174

must plan a maneuver, give appropriate orders, observe if things are going as planned, correct deviations, and repeat until maneuver is completed - MUST understand all forces working on the ship

Answer 175

1. physical characteristics of the ship 2. technical, scientific, and principles involved 3. forces that affect maneuvering and positioning of the ship 4. full understanding of terminology

Answer 176

too few opportunities to practice. wit your turn - typical 2 year duty = ship makes ~24 pier side landings. (pilots do 20ish, CO/XO 5, so 15 for the rest of the crew. DHs get 6ish so 9 for the remaining O's. few chances for the juniors/new. novices get little chances to get familiarization, competence, and confidence

Answer 177

single v multiple screw, single v dual rudder, rudder lined up behind the propellers v offset, gas turbine v steam v diesel capabilities/limitations of bow thruster on aux propulsions units, ships w/high sides and large superstructures are most sensitive to the wind

Answer 178

should not be ambiguous who is controlling the ship's movements - transfer of the conn is formal so all know who is giving orders, "I have the conn" "Aye Aye" - then announce gyro, compass course, and current order to the engine

Answer 183

understand all forces that affect the ship and how they interact - understand what can be directly controlled from bridge, controlled by voice command to remote locale, and what isn't under their control

Answer 184

lines, tugs, & anchors - controllabe forces but not at the same level of precisions as factors controlled directly from the bridge (engine, rudders)

Answer 185

water gives resistance to the ship's motion that is proportionate to the square of our speed

Answer 186

at rest, very little power is needed to move the ship

Answer 187

b/c resistance of water to a ship's motion. increase so steeply with increase in speed, a ship using 1/2 power can make about 80% of its max speed

Answer 200

piles used for moorign

Answer 201

perpendicular

Answer 202

sharp turns

Answer 203

short flagpole on the ship's bow

Answer 204

heading at pier, depth of water, navigational hazards along track< predicted wind/current, ship's position along the pier

Answer 205

strong wind or current holds the ship to the pier

Answer 206

anchors are designed to dig in w/horizontal pull and break out with a vertical pull - do want tohave some steerageway to lay out chain on a horizontal pull

Answer 207

pass a short distance over the point of anchoring (head into the wind/current) then gather slightly sternway to back through the same point so the bow passes over the intended anchorage

Answer 208

if possible, head into your anchorage directly into the prevailing wind or current (whichever is stronger)

Answer 209

always buoy an anchor to facilitate their recovery if they slip

Answer 210

depth of water, time at that anchorage, anticipated weather, characteristics of the bottom most common rule = 5-7x depth of water

Answer 211

unless the harbor is protected, the bow of an anchored ship moves a great deal - you can dampen this with a second anchor or greater chain

Answer 212

if anchored in a strong current or weather, it is prudent to maintain a capability to get u/w on short notice

Answer 213

in severe weather, strain on the ground tackle can be eased by steaming in place. - aim = reduce strain not eliminate it. - if slack, then bring up taut. that'll place a shock load on anchor which may cause it to drag or break - if weather is severe enough to consider steaming in place, you'll need a full watch team capable of getting u/w if anchor drags

Answer 214

aim - reduce strain not eliminate it. (on anchor) - if weather is severe enough to consider steaming in place, you'll need a full watch team capable of getting u/w if the anchor drags

Answer 215

maneuver where a ship uses its engine to maintain its position in the water w/o moving forward - key: no foreword movement but the engine is actively working to counter external forces that cause it to drift

Answer 216

no forward movement but the engines are actively working to counter external forces that cause it to drift - done to maintain a precise position - engine power and propeller pitch are precisely adjusted to achieve the desired stationary position

Answer 217

to hold a precise position

Answer 218

advance planning of maneuver is essential for doing a good job of landing a ship alongside - plan must account for... assigned berth, velocity/direction of wind and current - if you are going pierside or along another ship, if pier is pillon or solid face, potential traffic in channel and position of nearby ships

Answer 219

landing stern first is harder than bow first - b/c a ship doesn't steer as well going astern and is lest directionally stable - when backing, the pivot point movest towards the stern giving the rudder little to work with - if you have long distance to the back, you need sufficient steerageway to steer (over 5 knots(( or depend upon twisting with teh engine to maintain directional control -

Answer 220

you need to learn to read the ship's motion fore, aft, and laterally

Answer 221

reads speed relative to water not solid objects around you

Answer 222

instruments are helpful but none replace your own observations

Answer 223

quickwater = pattern of disturbance when ship's engines are backing, the water is distrubed by the back screw appears as a swriling pattern on the surface

Answer 224

= pattern of disturbance when the ship's engines are backing, the water is disturbed by the back screw appears as a swirling pattern on the sur4face 3 knots = quickwater stays with the ship 2 knots = water moves forward onto each side of the ship - as backing engines bring ship to a stop, the quickwater moves foreword to amidshp

Answer 225

anchors are designed to dig in w/a horizontal pull then break themselves off with a verticule pull - when dropping, you want to lay out the chain to put a horizontal pull on teh anchor...with steerageway if possible

Answer 226

when in restricted water, anchor should be kept read to let go - can help with maneuvering - drop anchor so it drags bottom w/o diggin in OR continue to pay out chain until the ship is sufficiently sowed enough to make it but don't think of anchor as an emergency break. can't stop a massive ship suddenly

Answer 227

anchor can control the bow when being set onto a pier by the wind or current

Answer 228

Mediterrean - method of mooring a ship using 2 anchors to secure the bow w/the stern line or lines to the pier - makes best use of limited pier space in crowded harbors - strong moor w/advantage over nestin in that each ship has its broiw tot he pier but the downside is the possibility of fouling anchors w/adjacent ships (can fix that disadvantage if ships leave in reverse order from where they are moored)

Answer 229

Mediterrean Moore - place anchor 100-150 yds apart on a line parallel to the pier and equidistant on each side of the position the ship will occupy when moored

Answer 230

mooring buoys are always more securely attached than what can be achieved with the ship 0 properly moored buoy remains nearly stationary so reduces the swinging arc of the ship

Answer 231

chain is let out through the bullnose and shackled to the buoy
