510. Your vessel is steering 354°T at 14 knots. At 0317 a light bears 049°T, and at 0342 the same light bears 071°T. What will be your distance off abeam?
The distance off abeam is determined by calculating the perpendicular distance from your vessel's track to the light using the run between two bearings and their relative angles. This distance is approximately 12.4 nautical miles, derived from the time elapsed, speed, and the change in relative bearing.
