While on a course of 279°T, a light bears 12° on the starboard bow at a distance of 9.3 miles. What course should you steer to pass 4 miles abeam of the light leaving it to starboard?

Correct Answer: Option C — 265°T

Applying standard Bowditch chartwork and triangle resolution techniques, compute the intersection of the new track required to achieve a 4-mile starboard abeam passing distance from the initial position.
