Abstract

A detailed voyage plan must be prepared prior start of the voyage from berth to berth taking into consideration a series of factors which depend on the vessel’s size, draught, vessel type, stability, navigation route, meteorological conditions etc. The most important part of the voyage plan for the master and deck offi cers is the route plotted on a paper and/or electronic navigational chart. Consequently, this paper elaborates
on the importance of understanding the utilisation of the major constituent elements when making a geometric display of the navigational route.
