You are conducting trials to determine the maneuvering characteristics of your vessel. While making a turn, you take ranges and bearings of an isolated light with the results as shown. Based on this information, what is the advance for a turn of 75°? D034DG

Correct Answer: Option C — 825 yards (754 meters)

Advance is the distance a vessel travels in the direction of its original course from the moment the rudder is put over until the completion of the turn. Based on the maneuvering data provided for the specific vessel's turning circle trials, 825 yards represents the calculated advance for a 75° turn.
