Hi all, I am trying to put a list of memory aids and or mnemonics together of anything relating to sailing.(navigation, day signals, night signals, pre sail checks etc etc)
EG. "white over red pilot out of bed" = white light over red light by night or Hotel flag by day.....pilot onboard or pilot vessel.
VD Makes Little Willies Drip
V = visibility
D = density (traffic)
M = Manoeverability of the vessel
L = lights (background lighting...trying to find a light against city lights
W= weather
D = draught of the vessel and depth of surrounding area
