warning, action as a mate, whom all will u inform before taking theshipapproaching signs of TRS-"fall of pressure 3 mb below normal" where do u
get normal pressure of that place-situvation: fishing vessel crossing from
port, in restricted visibility-cards: preffered channel to port, towing vsl seen
from stbd side, fishing vsl with extending gearfrom aft side..- MS notice
issued about armed guards recently-He draw symbol of wind with 25 kts and
asked wat it is-asked to show how warm front is shown on weather map-tell
about VDR, difference between VDR and SVDRAsked 3 Situations (Mainly
asked about Restricted Visibility Situations).2. Explain the rule 'Restricted
Visibility'?3. Explain about Buoyage System? (Region A and B).4. Own

Explain about currents?8. What is TRS?9. ISM Code - How is it helpful for
us? What is the use of ISM code?10. Deep water anchoring? -passage

weather is associated with high latitudes

ROR Cards: dredger, towing vessel (identification, action??)Situations:

power driven vessel crossing from your stbd. Side, open sea, clear
visibilityPower driven vessel crossing from your stbd. Side, open sea,
Restricted visibilityPower driven vessel crossing from your port side, TSS,
restricted visibilityWhich was your last trading area?What season will you
expect in Arabian Sea in the month of June?What about the weather in South
China Sea?How will you ascertain and monitor weather?Signs of TRS;
Which is the dangerous semi-circle?Function 2Loading on a tanker; tanks

weather. Master wants to know the GM of the vessel? How will youfind the
GM of the vessel?How will you load grain?Hazards of concentrates;Stability
of RORO vessels;LNG cargo; loaded passage; how the boil off of the cargo is
controlled?Gun tackle, how is it used on ships; advantage or
disadvantageFunction 3What all certificates does a ship require to carry?
Preparation for loadline survey;Requirements for ETA; draw the forward
ETA arrangements;What is the provision given for preventing the chafing of
the chain?Mooring: how will you berth the ship with following current?
Which will be the last lineto cast off for a ship at berth, having head current?
Capt. R. Sagar:What are the recent changes in ISGOTT?
