Turn the vessel slowly keeping the speed below 4 knots and taking approximately 2 minutes to complete 3600 . Keep turning the vessel until the display changes to display a value (usually about 1.25 turns) Note: If the rate of turn of the vessel is too fast the instrument will display “TURN HIGH”. It is not necessary to abandon the turn at this stage but do lessen the rate of turn by reducing
speed or widening the turning circle.
