While on a course of 152°T, a light bears 9° on the port bow at a distance of 11.6 miles. What course should you steer to pass 3 miles abeam of the light leaving it to port?

Correct Answer: Option D — 158°

Using Bowditch piloting and trigonometry principles, calculate the angle of the course change required to transition from the initial line of position to the 3-mile port abeam track.
