Year: 2018 Language: english Author: Department of the Navy Genre: Normative document Publisher: Department of the Navy Edition: 2018 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 172 Description: Technological advances have changed the ways to display charts and plot ship’s position; however, the fundamentals of safe navigation have remained unchanged. As such, no specific technological advances or set of rules can be created that can keep the ship safe in all possible conditions. Ship safety is assured only through good judgment applied to the specifics of each situation. The navigator (e.g., the ship’s navigator and the officer of the deck (OOD)) remains constantly alert, continuously questions position information and the reliability of the chart, and anticipates danger before it arises. The navigator not only knows the current situation and its uncertainties, but thinks ahead. A navigator should utilize all of their resources. The Navigation team’s relationship with one another is a prime factor in overall mission success. The Bridge working with the CIC team is essential to enabling the ship to achieving any assigned warfighting mission.
