Join the Isle of Dogs Sea Cadet Unit (IDOC) for an incredible look behind the scenes of two epic offshore sailing weekends on the Solent! Thanks to the generous support of the Ulysses Trust, our cadets swapped the streets of London for the open ocean. The crew learned essential maritime skills, navigated challenging coastal conditions, and built unforgettable bonds. Every charter we complete with the Trust directly funds a week-long sailing trip for a young person recovering from or with cancer. From evening navigation theory and intense Uno games to flying the spinnaker into a beautiful Solent sunset and anchoring at Osborne Bay, this is what youth offshore training is all about! A massive thank you to our adult volunteers, the Ulysses Trust, and the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust for making these life-changing experiences possible. ⚓ Connect with City Sailing & IDOC: • Subscribe for more sailing expeditions: • Learn more about the Ulysses Trust: https://www.ulyssestrust.co.uk • Support the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust: https://www.ellenmacarthurcancertrust.org #SeaCadets #SolentSailing #YouthOffshore #SailingExpedition #EllenMacArthurCancerTrust #UlyssesTrust #JackPetcheyAwards #IsleOfDogs #LearnToSail ⏱️ Timeline [00:04] - Leaving London: Heading to Southampton [00:44] - 40-Knot Winds & Exploring Cowes in the RIB [01:47] - Evening Navigation Theory & Team Uno [02:12] - Setting Sail & Cadet Interview with Carlos [03:44] - Crew Training: Man Overboard (MOB) Drill Practice [07:37] - Recreating a Cruise Ship Water Slide & Heading Home [08:31] - Part 2: Returning to the Solent with Ulysses Trust [09:43] - Foggy Navigation & Spotting Shipwreck Markers [10:09] - Cruising Past Yarmouth to The Needles [10:41] - Navigating the Needles Fairway Fog & Lunch [11:43] - Sunset Spinnaker Sail & Anchoring at Osborne Bay About Sea Cadets Sea Cadets provides young people with opportunities to develop confidence, teamwork, leadership, and practical maritime skills through a wide range of activities both on and off the water. 🔔 Subscribe for more Sea Cadet adventures, sailing activities, navigation training, and boating experiences. #SeaCadets #IsleOfDogsSeaCadets #SolentSailing #IsleOfWight #RIBHandling #YouthSailing #BoatingLife #MaritimeTraining #SailingAdventure #SeaCadetUK #Teamwork #Seamanship #SailingUK #WaterSports #CadetLife

ARPA - Automatic Radar Plotting Aid ARPA Automatic Radar Plotting Aid is a marine radar system that automatically detects, tracks, and predicts the movement of other ships and objects, providing vital data like speed, course, and Closest Point of Approach (CPA) for collision avoidance, reducing watchkeeper workload by automating target plotting. It requires a stabilised display and can be set to true or relative motion, but for collision avoidance relative motion is preferred. Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA) is a maritime navigation system that automatically tracks radar targets, calculating their speed, course, and closest point of approach (CPA) to enhance collision avoidance and situational awareness. It provides real-time data to replace manual plotting, reducing navigator workload and improving safety in dense traffic. Key Features and Functions Automatic Tracking: Detects and tracks up to 50 targets, providing continuous, rapid, and accurate evaluation. Collision Avoidance Data: Calculates target course, speed, and CPA (Closest Point of Approach) or TCPA (Time to Closest Point of Approach). Vector Modes: Offers Relative Vector mode for immediate collision risk assessment and True Vector mode for calculating the actual target course and speed. Trial Maneuver: Allows operators to simulate the effect of own-ship maneuvers on collision risks. Alarms: Provides audible and visual alerts for target acquisition, loss of target, and CPA/TCPA breaches. Operational Benefits Improved Safety: Reduces human error and provides faster, more accurate data than manual plotting. Efficiency: Enables quick assessment of multiple potential hazards simultaneously. Integration: Often integrated with ECDIS (Electronic Chart Display and Information Systems) and AIS (Automatic Identification System) for a comprehensive picture. Limitations Data Reliability: The accuracy of ARPA depends entirely on the accuracy of the speed log and gyro inputs. Target Swap: In high-density traffic, the system may occasionally swap target tracking between two closely spaced vessels. Delayed Information: It can take up to 3 minutes for a target's vector to stabilize and become accurate after a course change.
