76. At 1756 you determined your vessel's position to be 41°10.4'N, 71°59.2'W. From this position, you wish to change course to head for a point 5 miles west of Block Island North Light. With a reported set of 050°T, a drift of 2.0 knots and turning RPMs for 14 knots, which course should you steer to make good your desired course?
To reach the destination west of Block Island North Light, steer a course that accounts for the current's effect. Constructing a current triangle with a vessel speed of 14 knots and a current of 2 knots at 050T results in a course to steer of approximately 080T.
