confusion arises, more error happen, it becomes
difficult to make decisions which could lead into
an account. Hence the need for an efficient bridge
team and a good bridge team management.

RADAR NAVIGATION AT MANAGEMENT
LEVEL, IMO MODEL COURSE 1.08
This course is essentially
practical and consists of a series of exercises
performed on a radar simulator with two or more
own ships and a number of others controlled by the
instructor. Each exercise will involve observing
the movement of ships seen on the radar, recognizing
those presenting a threat of collision and taking
actions to avoid collision. Trainees will act either
as master or as an observing officer for the exercises,
and will change roles to allow each a turn in command
of an own ship.
As the course progresses,
exercises of increasing complexity are set to provide
realistic practice in the use of radar for navigation
and collision avoidance in confined waters with
heavy traffic. Each exercises will be followed by
class discussion, giving participants the opportunity
to analyse the actions taken and discuss possible
alternatives. This IMO model course meets the mandatory
minimum requirements for knowledge, understanding

dangerous situation is developing, to decide upon
and take appropriate action, and to ascertain that
such action is adequate and does not give rise to
further conflicts with other vessels. They will
also realize that excessive speed in poor visibility
reduces the time available to assess a threat and
to take appropriate action. Ability to plan, organize
and manage a bridge team, making use of all navigational
data, will also be achieved. Successful completion
of this course will also provide ability to respond
to, co-ordinate and execute a search and rescue
operation.
