Electronic chart "walk n talk" sail the buoy channel from seaward to Yas Marina F1 Racing Abu Dhabi

Join us for a look at the electronic chart "walk n talk" sail the buoy channel from seaward to Yas Marina F1 Racing Abu Dhabi
There is so much information to be found on both paper charts and electronic chart plotters. On this video, Sanka has a look at the approach to Abu Dhabi and the channel leading to the Yas Marina that is surrounded by the F1 Race Track.

Very useful guidance, simply explained. Thanks.

[@CoastalSafety]

Thank you for your kind words. We love this kind of helpful feedback. What kind of videos would you like us to make next? :-)

[@brucemcnair8887]

I enjoyed this one as it is. Further similar guidance on other signs, signals, buoys and flags in this format ( ie. a simulated voyage) would be great. Perhaps some British coastlines and cross-Atlantic and island hopping trips?

[@kennethforey8320]

Really enjoyed this. Great for assisting me to explain GPS plotting and coastal navigation. Thank you

[@CoastalSafety]

You are most welcome 😎

[@bentota]

Good and simple explanation. Easy to understand for us Sri Lankans - stuthi !

[@burgerrama9921]

Very nice tutorial! 👍🏼 Thanx a lot 😃

This is so great, as a deck officer I got more information today

[@CoastalSafety]

as a deck officer and yachtmaster instructor - I am happy to "give something back" - everyday is a learning day :-)

[@ClubSriLanka]

Nice, clear and simple. Sublime instruction.

[@CoastalSafety]

You are most welcome :-)

[@sivoltage]

Brilliant, thank you.

[@CoastalSafety]

Glad it was helpful!

[@CoastalSafety]

What videos would you like to see next?

[@sumithnanayakkara9960]

Thanks a lot sr

[@CoastalSafety]

Bohome stuthi, machan. After all these years since you started your path to being a "thinking" boat captain, you still continuing to learn "more and more" each day - well done sir :-)

[@bentota]

Very nice - I like to learn like this - stuti machan :-)

[@rizwanbaig7398]

Make video on lookout

Love this learning :-)

[@srilankaislandtours]

Very informative - well interesting :-)

[@CoastalSafety]

Glad it was helpful!

[@stevefitzgerald4288]

Very informative and nicely presented. Obviously there is much, much more to reading a chart and I know courses would be best but nice starting video. Quick question from a wannabe/ maybe boater who would take as much training as possible, I guess the vessel you are navigating would show on these interactive charts? Looks like they are foolproof for those with common sense 😊

[@stevefitzgerald4288]

Please keep these videos going with everything you can think of. I’ve looked at many and can say I find yours 5 star

[@CoastalSafety]

Glad it was helpful! Like using "google Maps" to drive through a city or a jungle area - 90% of the time it is "common sense". However, on a boat you cannot just apply the handbrake and check your options - especially when the tide is running fast and your boat is moving over the ground - even if "stopped in the water". So, yes you are absolutely correct, this is an insight to electronic pilotage - however proper training to make a "thinking Boat Captain" is essential for "smooth sailing" .. we have many courses at www.coastalsafety.com Thank you for your appreciation of the situation :-)

[@dinhluonghuy123]

hello capt,can i ask a question for more understanding? where can i find the number of chart datum on the electronic chart? thanks you so much.

[@CoastalSafety]

On a paper chart it will be under the title and WGS 84 printed in Magenta ink near the edge of the chart. In the early 1980s the need for a new world geodetic system was generally recognized by the geodetic community and also within the US Department of Defense. WGS 72 no longer provided sufficient data, information, geographic coverage, or product accuracy for all then-current and anticipated applications. The means for producing a new WGS were available in the form of improved data, increased data coverage, new data types and improved techniques. GRS 80 parameters together with available Doppler, satellite laser ranging and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations constituted significant new information. An outstanding new source of data had become available from satellite radar altimetry. Also available was an advanced least squares method called collocation which allowed for a consistent combination solution from different types of measurements all relative to the Earth's gravity field, i.e. geoid, gravity anomalies, deflections, dynamic Doppler, etc. The new World Geodetic System was called WGS 84. It is the reference system used by the Global Positioning System. It is geocentric and globally consistent within ±1 m. Current geodetic realizations of the geocentric reference system family International Terrestrial Reference System (ITRS) maintained by the IERS are geocentric, and internally consistent, at the few-cm level, while still being metre-level consistent with WGS 84. The WGS 84 originally used the GRS 80 reference ellipsoid, but has undergone some minor refinements in later editions since its initial publication. Most of these refinements are important for high-precision orbital calculations for satellites but have little practical effect on typical topographical uses.

inst it supposed to be red, right returning? why is the red on the left???

[@CoastalSafety]

A port hand buoy can be red or green- depending on the IALA region. Eg Americas, Japan, Philippines ( USA influence) has green port buoys, most of the rest of the world has red port hand buoys. Its mainly historical.

[@libbyd1001]

Apparently it's like driving on the left vs driving on the right 😂
