Extract

Many of the problems arising out of the use of radar in poor visibility can be laid at the door of ‘incorrect appreciation’ of the information available on the PPI, coupled with the lack of timely action to avoid, if possible, a close-quarter situation. To this must be added the over-confident ship handler who has never yet been faced with a collision situation in poor visibility and who may be complacent until too late.
