course and speed Explanation: Try this When the lookout warns me of a contact, I assess our course and speed in relation to the same, then manoeuvre the vessel in observance of the rules for preventing collisions at sea. N.B.: in Italian he doesn't say he assesses the manoeuvre. He assesses the situation, then changes course and perhaps speed to avoid a possible collision |

kinematics Explanation: Kinematics is the branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of points, bodies (objects) and systems of bodies without consideration of the forces that cause it. Kinematics is often referred to as the geometry of motion. Kinematics studies the trajectories of points, lines and other geometric objects and their differential properties such as velocity and acceleration.

The Training Ship Cuauhtemoc (ARM Cuauhtémoc BE-01), also known as Mexican Ambassador and Gentleman of the Seas is a ship of the Navy of Mexico in which the cadets from the Heroic Military Naval School make their practice. These practices include the study of subjects such as naval kinematics, nautical astronomy, national and international maritime law, naval communications, and maintenance management, seminars and navigational practices are included in their resume and it all forms an essential part of the training of Naval Cadets. |
