While on a course of 159°T, a light bears 11° on the starboard bow at a distance of 10.6 miles. What course should you steer to pass 2 miles abeam of the light leaving it to starboard?

Correct Answer: Option B — 159°T

Evaluating the initial range and relative bearing using standard Bowditch triangle methods demonstrates that the vessel's existing true course already maintains the exact geometry required to pass 2 miles starboard abeam.
