INTRODUCTION
In the current industrialization and modernization of our country and the
global information exploitation, English plays an important role in the education
and training, the development of the country in general and the maritime in
particular.
According to the International Convention on Standards of Training,
Certification and Watch-keeping for Seafarers 2011, English is a compulsory
requirement for seafarers.
To help students of Maritime College I meet the English language
requirement of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) after graduation,
the textbook “Maritime English for Navigation” is compiled for the third year
students of the Navigation Department.
Based on the realities of the maritime industry in the world the core of
which is the codes, conventions, as well as the guidelines and recommendations
of the International Maritime Organization (IMO). This textbook provides
students with advanced English grammar, maritime vocabulary and standard
marine communication phrases, as well as common usages that have been
developed specifically for the maritime profession.
The textbook consists of 5 units with the structure of each unit as follows:
1. Vocabulary
2. Language focus
3. Skills

3. Skills: The text
3.1. Reading: Navigating Techniques and Instruments
Figure 1.2. Bridge layout
(Source: http://gpsworld.com)
It is the Deck Officer’s job to take the ship safely from place to place as
quickly and economically as possible. From the moment a ship leaves a berth to
her arrival at the next port, her position is constantly checked and plotted on a
chart. To do this accurately, the navigator uses a number of instruments and
techniques.
When out of sight of land, a ship’s position can be found by using the
techniques of celestial navigation. Celestial navigation involves taking
observations of the sun, moon and stars with a sextant. This is an instrument which
measures the angle between the celestial body and the horizon. The exact time that
the sight is made must also be recorded. This is done on the ship’s chronometer,
which is a very accurate clock. With this information and the tables given in a
book called a nautical almanac, the navigator is able to calculate the ship’s
position.
While in sight of land, the navigator uses the techniques of coastal
navigation to find his position. Navigation in coastal water is known as pilotage.
At regular intervals, the officer on watch takes observations of conspicuous
landmarks, such as a lighthouse or a church spire, using the ship’s compass and a
sextant.
19
Today, thanks to the advancement in technology, a ship today has several
advanced navigation equipment systems such as compass, radar, auto-pilot,
Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA), Electronic Chart Display Information
System (ECDIS), Automatic Identification System (AIS), Voyage Data Recorder
(VDR), Global Positioning System (GPS) and Bridge Navigational Watch Alarm
Systems (BNWAS).
GPS provides the fastest and most accurate method for mariners to navigate,
measure speed, and determine location. This enables increased levels of safety and
efficiency for mariners worldwide.
Task 6. Match each navigation equipment with its function.
Navigation equipment
1. Sextant
Function
a. is used for finding the right direction of a ship
b. gives astronomical data
2. Chronometer
3. Nautical almanac
c. determines location of a ship
d. measures the angle between the celestial body

1. What is the deck officer’s job?
................................................................................................................................
2. How often is the ship’s position checked and plotted on a chart?
................................................................................................................................
3. How can a ship’s position be found when out of sight of land?
................................................................................................................................
4. What does the celestial navigation involve?
................................................................................................................................
5. Is a chronometer a very accurate clock?
................................................................................................................................
