Deck Navigation (Supplementary) USCG Question #1500 (Set 4)

Some locations maintain a zone time of -13. What are the zone time and date if the Greenwich time and date are 2152, 10 January?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — 1052, 11 January

Applying a -13 zone description to Greenwich Mean Time (2152, 10 January) requires subtracting 13 hours. Since this crosses the date line backward and forward correctly, it results in adding the net offset or adjusting to 1052 on 11 January.
