February 2019 The Foghorn Newsletter of the Maritimes Division of the Company of Master Mariners of Canada www.mastermariners.ca February 2019 From the Master NACC QUEBEC Captain Chris Connor Meetings We had a small and intimate meeting in January. Attendance was low due to the very inclement weather that had passed through Halifax earlier that day. This is often a complication with the meetings in January and February. Nevertheless, I briefed the members present on the latest news from the national executive and discussed some topics of interest to the members present.

Look for further information in From the Bridge. Unfortunately, I have exceeded the term limits somewhat; it is time for a new Master! Passenger Training If you are interested in taking a position on the Divisional Council make it known to the Secretary or We were briefed at the last national executive one of the current council members. There is a great teleconference on the progress made in the project to deal of personal satisfaction in giving back to your revamp the passenger training regulations.

When members asked what do we get from membership, it is these things behind the scenes that are often the most important. Having direct input into new regulatory requirements is very beneficial to the industry and our members on whole. Company Policy & Procedure Manual The Policy & Procedure Manual has been updated to reflect the current Company structure with additional information on procedures to follow for membership, travel, harassment, etc. It is well worth the time to read the document. It can be found easily on the website. The national executive has voted to adopt the manual which is a living document thus much more relevant to our situation and easily amended.

    ON THE ACCURACY OF WIND AND WAVE MEASUREMENTS FROM BUOYS 1Peter K. Taylor, 2Ewa Dunlap, 3F.W. Dobson, 3R. J. Anderson, and 4Val R. Swail ABSTRACT The reliability and accuracy of wind and wave measurements from moored buoys has been the subject of numerous investigations in the past several years. Most studies were severely hampered by the lack of a suitable data set for comparison. Problems encountered in comparison included some or all of: spatial separation; vastly different platform types, affecting sensor height, flow distortion, platform motion; over-water versus coastal sites. The Storm Wind Study 2 (SWS-2) was carried out on the Grand Banks of Newfoundland in the winter of 1997-98 using the Canadian research vessel Hudson and a NOMAD meteorological buoy which was specially equipped with several anemometers, wave sensors and a motion sensor, with high data rate recording (2 Hz to 20 Hz). SWS-2 has allowed examination of a number of reported problems affecting buoy winds and waves, including those concerning vector/scalar wind differences, wind fluctuations over waves and wave sensor comparisons.1 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Storm Wind Study 2 (SWS-2) field experiment took place between 29 October 1997 and 15 March 1998. The location of the SWS-2 experiment was the Grand Banks, about 300 km E of St. John’s, near the Hibernia oil field (Figure 1). The project was led by the Climate Research Branch (CRB) of the Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC), with participation of the Southampton Oceanography Centre (SOC; U.K.), BIO, MSC Atlantic and Pacific Regions, and Axys Technologies, the primary Canadian buoy contractor.
