On 18 May your 1030 ZT DR position is LAT 18°30'N, LONG 62°31'W. You are on course 286°T, speed 24 knots. Determine your 1200 position using the following observations of the Sun.

Correct Answer: Option D — LAT 18°41.1'N, LONG 62°53.9'W

Navigational celestial plotting requires advancing the 1030 DR position by the 1.5-hour run at 24 knots. Applying the intercept and azimuth from the sun observation to the advanced DR position yields the 1200 fix. This process adheres to standard nautical navigation procedures for determining position via celestial observations.
