At 2237 ZT on 14 July you are in DR position LAT 33°57' N, LONG 150°32' W, when you observe an amplitude of Saturn. The planet is about one Sun's diameter above the visible horizon and bears 258.6°psc. The variation is 14°E. What is the deviation?

Correct Answer: Option D — 2.0°W

Calculate the true azimuth of Saturn using celestial navigation sight reduction tables for the given DR position and time. Compare true bearing with compass bearing to find compass error, then remove variation (14°E) to isolate the deviation of 2.0°W.
