A seaman is reported missing in the morning and was last seen after coming off the mid-watch. Which type of turn would you use to return to the track-line steamed during the night?

Correct Answer: Option A — Williamson

A seaman reported missing after the mid-watch requires the Williamson turn, standard maritime doctrine for delayed man overboard scenarios, to accurately place the vessel back on the reciprocal trackline steamed during the hours the person was absent from duty.
