- Q109 - Navigation Problems: Oceans
516. Your vessel receives a distress call from a vessel reporting her position as LAT 35°01.0'S, LONG 18°51.0'W. Your position is LAT 35°01.0'S, LONG 21°42.0'W. Determine the true course and distance from your vessel to the vessel in distress by parallel sailing.
The correct course is 090T and the distance is 140.0 miles because the vessels share the same latitude, indicating an easterly track, and the longitude difference yields a distance of approximately 140 nautical miles.
