20 The Mariner - Issue 152 2015

To navigate with limited navigational equipment, you should know the dead reckoning or DR technique.

This is the process of estimating ones current position based upon a previously determined position, or fi x, and advancing that position based upon known or estimated speeds over elapsed time, and course.

On our representative trip back from Catalina Island, Isthmus Cove for example, we know from the chart that the distance is about 30 nautical miles to Marina del Rey on a magnetic course of about 350.

We also know from experience, boat speed log or engine RPMs, that our vessel cruises at 10 knots. Our typical trip would then take 3 hours (30 nautical miles divided by 10 knots= 3 hours). Lets say we encounter the fog bank after one hour of travel from the island. By our calculations, then, 10 knots times 1 hour travel= 10 miles elapsed distance. We mark this distance upon our drawn course line of 350 degrees, and we have a pretty good estimate of our position when we encounter the fog.

If we are good helmsmen and maintain our current speed of 10 knots, then we should be very close to the Marina in two more hours by our watch. Naturally wind and current are going to have an effect your DR results.
