- Q135 - Navigation Problems: Oceans
395. You depart LAT 16° 24' S, LONG 169° 38' W, for LAT 16° 24' S, LONG 174° 52' E. What are the course and distance by parallel sailing?
The course is 270 T and the distance is 892 nautical miles. This is because the smaller difference in longitude between the departure and arrival points, after accounting for their differing longitudes, is 1530′ W, which at the given latitude corresponds to a distance of approximately 892 nautical miles.
