Question 457 Deck Safety
70% to passYour voyage planning indicates you will arrive at a waypoint in longitude 49°16.3'E at 0947 ZT on 3 March 1988. How should this date be entered into an AMVER report?
The correct answer is A) 030647Z MAR. This is the correct way to enter the date and time in an AMVER report because the AMVER system uses the standard format of day-of-month, time in UTC (Zulu Time), and month. Since the question states the arrival time is 0947 ZT on 3 March 1988, the correct entry would be 030647Z MAR, where 030 represents the 3rd day of the month, 0647Z represents the time in Zulu (UTC) format, and MAR represents the month of March. The other options are incorrect because B) 03094703 does not include the Zulu time format, C) 030947C MAR does not use the correct Zulu time format, and D) 06470303Z does not correctly represent the date and month.
