Deck Safety (Supplementary) USCG Question #61 (Set 1)

A sailing vessel with the wind coming from 020° relative would be __________.

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option A — coming about

A relative wind angle of 020 degrees indicates the wind is crossing directly ahead and across the bow during a tack transition. When a sailing vessel changes tacks by bringing the bow through the eye of the wind, it is actively coming about.
