About this mock

Difficulty: Beginner

RYA Day Skipper Mock 9 focuses on dead reckoning for learners working through day skipper theory. This round uses course, speed, time and estimated position to check whether the learner can apply the topic in context. The set should reveal whether mistakes in dead reckoning come from knowledge, wording or pace. It keeps dead reckoning separate from broader mixed revision so progress is easier to judge.

Topics included

Tidal diamonds for dead reckoning
Night navigation with course
Emergency actions in short practice questions
Course to steer using answer comparison
Buoyage for revision confidence

Common mistakes in this mock

Using the wrong time for tide height when reading dead reckoning
Confusing give-way and stand-on duties before checking the clue
Missing a harbour pilotage clue in timed practice
Overlooking weather changes during planning while comparing close options

Who this mock is for

Useful for sailing students revising chartwork, tides and coastal passage planning with a focus on dead reckoning.
