You are running parallel to the coast and take a running fix using bearings of the same object. If you are making less speed than used for the running fix, in relation to the position indicated by the fix, you will be __________.

Correct Answer: Option B — closer to the coast

When executing a running fix, running slower than the estimated speed used for the advance means you have covered less distance than plotted. Consequently, your actual position will lag behind the fix, placing you closer to the coast.
