While on a course of 349°T, a light bears 13° on the starboard bow at a distance of 10.8 miles. What course should you steer to pass 2.5 miles abeam of the light leaving it to starboard?

Correct Answer: Option B — 349°T

Plotting the initial position and drawing the required abeam offset distance according to standard chartwork procedures reveals that the vessel's current heading already maintains the exact trajectory needed to pass 2.5 miles starboard abeam.
