How to take merpass sight... i told him the whole procedure..stopped me at what time... I said almanac... said almanac gives only for the nearest minute. Your error will be too high... (wanted to hear stand five minutes before and observe the sun on the horizon ... when it stops rising ie altitude increasing and starts coming back down ie altitude decreasing. that is the exact moment to take the sight) asked me to find out later. Then went to cards asked around 5 cards. Was very helpful as I was a lil nervous. The went into situations Overtaking in TSS... overtaking in rv etc etc A few situations about crossing and overtaking (wants to know when a vessel is crossing and when a vessel is overtaking) structure of Ror. Sections etc Isolated danger buoy, safe water mark difference between them

How do you correct sextant altitude for lower limb, didn't say sun/moon and then stopped me at index error while answering n asked how is index error calculated and then tried to prove me wrong saying u will subtract off the arc... 4. Then showed various lights on his phone and gave random situations. .... None had side lights only vsl lights and a white light.. Every 5 seconds one new situation and when I said I'll wait for sidelights if they're out of range and then take action he disagreed, didn't listen .... Didn't ask to quote any rules..... 5. Hints of trs in the vicinity I started with pressure drop, he said he wanted proper order. .... That was the limit bc .. I decided, fck it , this guy will wash me out.... He then continued .. , your coming out of South China sea u see high waves and cloudy sky and pressure drops by more than 10mb. Wind is veering, what do you infer and what's ur action.....

He will ask u so many situation,and when you will answer he will also try to confuse you but just stand by to ur answers don't panic. Situation like crossing, overtaking and rv and so many. Ur gyro failed action at sea. What do you mean by Compasses compared,courses checked. Gave a question related to Mag. Heading ,gyro heading and now ur gyro fails what course will you steer. What is true vector and what is relative vector. When will the true and relative vector be same. How will u know a pilot vessel is underway or making way. Radar not working bearing constant, range decreasing a target near the horizon how will determine her movement. Then showed few card like towing ,fishing, pilot vsl and few more.

1] You see a pilot ship right ahead seen from stbd side. Master on bridge no time to take bearing how to find if Roc exist. Ans: From true and relative vector on radar.

2] true course 300 mag 305 var 1e and gyro fails action. Chart change var 1w what will u steer Ans 305

3] vessel 3 points from port bow bearing constant range decreasing. Ans: it is an overtaking situation but I stated it as a crossing situation

4.] a ship from stbd side u can c her masthead and sidelights both which is again 4 points on stbd bow. Ans] I said as per rule 14b head on and so alter course stbd bt it was wrong and he said no roc exist so maintain course and speed. 2 3 more questions bt all from his previous set of questions.

Till that time will continue cross questioning .he will guide u and give u hint. Do not require rules word by word but require to know the meaning of each. Track line search. Draw and explain. What is `S‟ and how to calculate. Vsl 2 mile from shore started dragging anchor action. As I was giving the points started making the situation worse for ex.

1. Lot of situations. Will try to confuse you with interchanging lights positions and vsls bearing. 2. You see a vsl on your horizon. Fine starboard. Brg changs about half point every 10 mins. Roc exists. Action. 3. At night you see a white light on your starboard. Open sea. All possibilities with actions 4. Many more situations- pilot vsl, fishing vsls etc 5.

He directly started with situations. I answered the first one correctly. Then instead of using the CARDS, he drew them with pencil and wrote GREEN, RED, WHITE, YELLOW etc. Because everything was in black and white, I took long time to picturize the situation and identify the vessels. Then he drew 2 more vessels with pencils and put them on collision course with me. He started to check his watch and my brain went into FREEZE MODE.

If it is stopped how u will determine and lot other situations Your gyro course is 304 and course on compass is 3oo and gyro fails what course u will follow var is 2 degree and what is deviation at that heading east now chart changes and variation is o degrees what will be your course show by cdmvt What is track spacing what is its formula IN tha table what is against what What is track line search explain my drawing on paper What is mean compass compared and repeters checked (he wanted to hear while checking repeaters we will also check our heading in radar ecdis course recorder ais)

Asked which fun u most prepared with i said fun 1 Atleast 35 situations There were no cards so he was drawing wid pen and few misunderstanding caused because of it . 1. Right ahead 2 miles pilot vsl seen from port side . No radar, master on bridge wing ..how will you know roc exist n movement of vsl , you dont have time to take brg . Then after few mins he says chalo ill giv u a radar . Now how will u a know of she is stopped or making way .. 2. Vsl towing another vsl on 4pts of ur port bow. This also shown by drawing card..... 3. Vsl is end on 3 pts on stbd. 4. Define end on (i saod wen both mast lights and side lights r seen , he was not satisfied) 5. One vsl brg 010 then 015 then constant ( wants to hear alter course to port) 6. One vsl on ur brg 100 7. U c only one white light , what all posibilty. 8. Same white light is of a big vsl seen on 4pts port bow.( here i fucked up ) 9. U c a vsl with 2 cones apex together 5 pts port bow . 10. 2 vsls both on 4 points port and stbd each. Plenty more cards 11. How many gyro repeaters on board?. If gyro fails u r doing 300 and compass is 306 and var is 2 deg E .what compass course ull follow. And wen u go on the chart u c mag var is 2 deg west . Now what course ull steer. 12 . Draw turning circle diagram n all labling. 13. Wen u know a vsl was following a course on a particular course n along that leg the vsl was lost ....the whoch search pattern n how will u commence n from where

As I entered he asked my name and introduction and all. Why you failed last time i told him messed up in ror.he said ok. He started with radar plotting wants to know about true and relative vector. Gyro failed your action. Gyro 300, meg 306.var 3E. After this chart has changed and now var 2aw and dev 3E. What you will steer.how to find out gyro nnn magnetic compass error.various situation on radar nnn rv. Every time confusing me keep changing the position of the target. Then came to amplitude when to take. how to take and why then azimuth why to take? \ how to take and why. draw track line search pattern. how track space is calculated and from where.he also want to know about the table(Imsar).

He has no cards so he draws lights on a paper and places your vessel and asks to identify situation and take action. Fishing vsl and pilot vsl at different bearings.

Vsl dragging anchor at night and a shoal patch 2 cables astern.. action? I said call engine rm for engines , call master send anchor party fwd. Engineer said engines will take half n hour to get ready. Master and anchor party takes 7-8 mins. Action ? Now vsl ran aground. Action?

You joined a gas tanker what all things you will check as an officer (He wants all safety related points like FFA in place scba near manifolds and about MARVS) Fixed DCP system how you test it, do you release the powder and expiry of powder (he wants to listen provision is provided for introducing air to remove any caking formed have to use dry air) How will you know MARVS is working, testing of Marv's Gas cargo characteristics and boiling point of propane and butane,

Asked me which ships did I do. I said both tankers, asking only about bulky. Asked me precautions for loading coal. I told him solanki book answer so he wasn‟t satisfied. He‟s like you should knw more. I said sir I‟ve not even seen a hold till now. So what I‟ve read I‟ve told you. Then he‟s like what will you check inside the hold before discharging and after discharging coal. What are concentrates and examples. Explain each with examples. Then he is like you ship has collided. Gave me the paper and told me to make damage report. I told him anyhow use shell expansion plan and told him few things we get in it. But he wanted to hear step by step how to make it. He wanted to knw how will we get the plate numbers and all. Asked what is rigging plan. Scupper plan, why is this made and all. Asked how many pyrotechniques and its uses. Like he wanted to hear when sart is detected that means vessel is in vicinity to about 8 to 10 miles. So we havto use rocket parachute 1st and then when you see a helicopter or something. we have to use hand flare or at night smoke signals. Asked details of some lsa. Then some new ammendments in solas.details of sart. Asked me how did i perform, I told him that function 1 i made a fuck up but function 2 i told you whatever I‟ve read from the books and there is no way i can knew more.

Introductions, company, functions course etc. Started with EEDI, SEEMP, How can you contribute to the same as a 2nd officer. Annex 6 gasses, (he said CO2 does not constitute in Annex 6, i said eedi is in Annex 6 and it is basically CO2 emissions, to this he asked me to check again, as I was getting up he started with next question) Angle of lol, action, the vessel has e/r controlled blasting, what orders will you give to the 4th eng. Fixed fire fighting system in last ship, maintainance (weekly, monthly, yearly, 3 yearly and 5 yearly) Asked a few regulation of the same I didn't know Enclosed space entry in 4s COT, what all steps. (I started with Purging, risk assessment, gas check) cut me off and asked about calibration. Explained calibration. Asked where the regulation for maximum concentration for various gasses are written. I answered isgott, he asked from where does isgott get its values - I didn't know this, he explained tlv and all. Now started going onto technicals of the newest gas detector (multi gas detector, neither tank scope nor explosimeter.) couldn't answer this either. He asked me about UTI. Working principle. I explained what I know from manuals I have read on board. He was impressed with this. He then asked how does it detect the interface. I said conduction principle. (at this point he explained capacitance and all the funda) After this he said he would have given 10 if I had gotten capacitance and the new Gas Detector right..

Then he told me did u got ur answer which I told u to get I said yes I told him the answer. He said if u wod have told me this yesterday u wod have got ur fun yesterday only. Then he said in my view u failed yesterday only so we should start today everything for fun 1. I was totally scared. But somehow got some courage and told him okay sir no probs the. He asked me rule 19. Then wat is leading lights. Then after he was satisfied with my answer of ques and started lecturing me abt how imp is updateion of publication and charts it can lead a dangerous situation. I said I will study more and work hard. Then he finally said congratulation u r now second mate. I said m very grateful u gave me chance sir.he said its okk son God bless u. And I was on cloud nine.
