About Watchkeeping for Deck Officers
Watchkeeping for Deck Officers is an independent study app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the IMO, the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) or any government or intergovernmental body, and it does not represent a government entity.
It prepares OOW, Chief Mate and Master candidates for oral examinations on bridge watchkeeping: what you would do, what you would check and why, said out loud.
WHAT IS INSIDE
- 348 oral questions at three levels (OOW, Chief Mate, Master), each with a model answer
- 123 scenario questions, asked the way an examiner asks them
- 29 chapters in seven sections, with 139 diagrams and pinch to zoom
- 36 equipment cards covering the bridge, from compass and radar to BNWAS and VDR: what it is, how it works, what you check and what the examiner listens for
- Pictures: 16 cards have their own picture or diagram today, and more are being added in updates
- A picture quiz: name the equipment from its picture
- Speak aloud practice: read the question, say your answer, reveal the model answer, then mark yourself
- Mock orals read aloud, with self marking and a saved score
- Search across chapters, cards and questions
