440. Your vessel is proceeding up a channel, and you see a pair of range lights that are in line ahead. The chart indicates that the direction of this pair of lights is 311°T, and the variation is 8°E. If the heading of your vessel at the time of the sighting is 305° per standard magnetic compass, what is the correct deviation?
The deviation is the difference between magnetic and compass headings. The compass reading (305) was 2 higher than the calculated magnetic heading (303), indicating a 2 West deviation.
