Sir so interms of lights, can you tell if the vessel is making way on not by lights only, because if im not mistaken if you're underway you'll have your navigation lights on

[@erikenox]

I think that this rule is oftten not applied because one can see a lot of cases in wich we can read underway in te AIS status even if it would be corret to indicate the making way status.

[@oceanlovers5454]

Sir please make vedio what should do after joining a vessel as a 3rd mate at first time. At the beginning day..

[@SailorVikas]

Yes well noted ...will add into the list !

Sailor Vikas sir how to fill up various logbook including pilot card specially for cadet and fresh 3rd mate. Love u sir❤️

Yup will cover this part for sure ...m joining in 1 week...so when I go onbd will surely make a vlog for this

Sir waiting for ur vedio

[@raymondallenjhangiani7670]

Good explanation ! These terms may seem very simple ? but indeed are very sensitive when entries made in ships log book by officers on watch , when it comes to clarifications in case of accidents? Good video 👍 much appreciated ! God bless you always 🙏

[@SailorVikas]

Thankyou ❤️

[@adityachandra7959]

STW: 0.5 knot, and vessel at anchor, Perhaps this situation arises then what should be our answer??

[@SailorVikas]

Vessel at anchor is the answer 😊 If ur vsl is made fast to ground than it doesn't matter what speed through water is being showed.

[@adityachandra7959]

@@SailorVikas thank you sir ji

[@johnbeequinanola5979]

i have a question. What will be the lights shall to exhibit for the vessel underway making way and vessel underway but not making way?

[@SailorVikas]

Hampered vsls mentioned in rule 18 - NUC, RAM, FV ( Including trawler) and SV when showing sidelights are termed as making way, when not showing sidelights are underway. Pdv, CBD, seaplane, air cushion vessel, WIG craft, mineclearance vsl ( which is RAM) are underway when showing sidelights.

[@johnbeequinanola5979]

@@SailorVikas just wondering if the PDV underway but not making way, if she still have to exhibit a side lights

[@SailorVikas]

@@johnbeequinanola5979 Yes, she will show sidelights when stopped and drifting at sea.

[@Mani5549]

@sailor vikas great n informative video sir but for making way small amdement can be done on above condition 1) ship moving through water using engine. Bcoz according to sitn 5 engine is stopped but still moving through water .

[@SailorVikas]

I got your point , but I think it's ok..because I verbally told in that part about it ,❤️

What if My STW is 25 kts N my rudder is nt responding???

[@akhilkaushik4215]

Nice bro If possible please clear the concept of Rule 8 part (f) 1),2),3)

[@SailorVikas]

Yup

[@yet72]

so there will not be any condition in which a vsl is making way and not underway.

[@SailorVikas]

Yes

[@abhijeetanand6523]

Sir, what is a vessel moving at 18 kts and become NUC, she have her momentum, but here rudder is not responding, what to call her then?

[@SailorVikas]

As explained in video 02.51 : making way means ship is in control by helm, as per your case, rudder is not responding means it's not making way, however it is complying with the definition of underway which is not at anchor, made fast or aground, thus such situation shall be considered as only underway !💯

[@PirateOfTheSea]

Making way- the Log Speed is greater than Zero. Not making way- Log Speed is Zero

[@divyanshusharma7055]

Sir in situation no. 5 if STW is 0 and Speed over ground is 10 knots, since current is pushing us, rudder can still be effective ? And if effective it should be making way. Please clear it once. TIA

[@SailorVikas]

If current is pushing you than the water is moving along with the ship so ship is basically not cutting water as water is moving along with the ship, thus rudder is not effective here

[@kambysworld-aguidetosecond8215]

One doubt, if vsl is at anchor but dragging. Then what is the status of vsl

[@SailorVikas]

Underway, because definiton of underway in rule 3 says not made fast to shore, aground or at anchor ....so dragging anchor means vsl is not at anchor thus it's considered as UNDERWAY

[@kambysworld-aguidetosecond8215]

@@SailorVikas im really thankful to u , for explanation thank you

[@kambysworld-aguidetosecond8215]

One more doubt if vsl in underway when she is dragging her anchor then Will she show side lt stern light and nuc light Or just nuc lights???

[@kambysworld-aguidetosecond8215]

@@SailorVikas thanks was confused 🙏🙏🙏

[@Saarathi777]

what is the meaning of ....underway using engine....? tnx

[@SailorVikas]

Underway means not at anchor, made fast to shore or aground, in this situation ship is using her engines to manoeuvre, it may be cutting the water or may not be cutting the water if she has just started her engines, depends on STW.❤️

[@dhonisachin1322]

Sir...we are drifting at sea..engines are on short notice ..drifting bcz..there is a delay in next port of call...what light signal should we show...i came through many disputes considering that as vsl not under command..please answer

[@SailorVikas]

Drifting is always UNDERWAY And lights to be shown of UNDERWAY and NEVER NUC Putting NUC is not permitted but still people put to let other ships keep clear of you.

How would incorrect input affect CPA? Thanks in advance

[@SailorVikas]

@Claire Diestro : CPA is calculated on the basis of consecutive bearings and when their is an error in bearing input from Gyro to ARPA ( RADAR), It will affect as their is error in calculating CPA of targets.

[@mj_tv9357]

@@SailorVikas Thank you so much. so much to learn on this page. thanks for the help.

[@mj_tv9357]

i have follow up question regarding the first one. What would incorrect input affect?

[@SailorVikas]

@@mj_tv9357 when input are bearings from gyro, than output you get in ARPA is CPA thus your CPA range is in error if input is wrong, so navigation is affected because of wrong CPA. ( If company policy says to maintain minimum 2 miles CPA with other vessels than because of error in your CPA, your range might be closer than what is shown in ARPA ) So your navigation is not as per company standards. Thus navigation is affected. And it's dangerous if you are passing other vessels at close range as navigation officer gets wrong info. From the ARPA about CPA values

How ı will deal that by nıght lıght navıgatıon lıghts

[@SailorVikas]

For that you have to use and practice ROR cards along with the Colregs theory to understand which vsls are underway and which are making way !
