That is why mariner-training schools, instructors and students use them to learn and practice chart plotting and navigation, and why they are used in marine training tests.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChart 13205TR is one of three training charts (12221TR, 12354TR and 13205TR) that the U.S. Coast Guard National Maritime Center lists among the reference materials available in the exam room for deck license examinations, which makes it useful practice for students preparing for a USCG license exam.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe National Maritime Center's own sample navigation problems for the Operator of Uninspected Passenger Vessels (OUPV) exam are worked by plotting on chart 13205TR. They cover fixes from bearings, set and drift, compass course and deviation, course to steer with current and leeway, speed made good and ETA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRelevant pages of symbols and abbreviations from Chart No. 1 are printed on the reverse side of some training charts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor instructional purposes only.
