This method of conducting controlled turns is straight forward and easy to use. The planning is simple and results in turns being defined by their radius and a reference point’s distance from the turn centre. These two values allow for a quick and simple radar set up to provide continuous realtime monitoring from a single source. Further, as the turn is referenced from the seascape being navigated, it is evident that the effects of set and drift will be detected and can be compensated for by rate of turn adjustments.
