Your voyage planning indicates you will arrive at a waypoint in longitude 49°16.3 W at 0947 ZT on 3 March 1988. How should this date be entered into an AMVER report?

Correct Answer: Option C — 031247Z

AMVER position reports require date and time formatted in a specific six-digit group followed by Z. The first two digits represent the day of the month, the next four digits represent Coordinated Universal Time (UTC/ZULU), correctly rendering 031247Z for the third day at 1247 UTC.
