296. On 9 May your vessel's 1809 ZT DR position is LAT 48° 13.7' N, LONG 168° 36.3' E, when an amplitude of the Sun is observed. The Sun's center is on the celestial horizon and bears 283.7° per standard magnetic compass. Variation in the area is 13.0° E. The chronometer reads 07h 13m 19s and is 02m 56s fast. What is the deviation of the standard compass?
The compass deviation is 0.1 W because the observed compass bearing exceeds the computed magnetic bearing, indicating a westerly deflection.
