This course is designed for those who remember the basics of rapid radar plotting. The final exams consist of two paper plots and two simulator plots plus a short voyage on the simulator maneuvering in traffic. Students must get an 80% to pass the course.
The course is US Coast Guard approved for 8 hours, so plan on being in class that long. UAS Ketchikan offers a 2 and 3 day radar renewal course for those who desire more review. A good book to review before class is: Real Time Method of Radar Plotting by Max H. Carpenter.
