Abstract

In carrying out navigation guard service in narrow shipping channel requires high attention to maintain security and safety during navigation. The challenge of sailing in the narrow shipping channel is crowded traffic activities such as traditional fishing boats which also do not use lighting devices so that they are not visible, at night the navigation lights in the channel are dim and some do not operate properly, so the risk of collision is very large. Therefore, navigating in narrow shipping lanes requires great skill and vigilance. This study was conducted to determine the utilization of electronic navigation tools in KMP. DLN Oasis in particular the use of ARPA Radar during the author's practice of sailing on the ship. ARPA Radar (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid) is a very important navigation aid in sailing, especially during bad weather, foggy and sailing at night. The effective use of Arpa Radar can help reduce the risk of collisions at sea. Therefore, all duty officers on board must understand how to use this tool well. This study was conducted using radar-ARPA observation method and the current situation of the ship in the narrow channel whether according to standard procedures or not and documentation of taking pictures of the object under study.

From the results of the study it was found that during the ship navigated in the narrow shipping channel, the duty officer did not optimize the use of features in the Arpa Radar that can help him navigate safely and safely during the narrow shipping channel when going out and entering the port in Surabaya. Important features in the Arpa Radar such as distance and direction measurements of an object using VRM (variable Range Mark) and EBL (Electronic Bearing Line) as well as features to calculate the CPA (Closest Point of Approach) and TCPA (Time to Closest Point of Approach). These features in the Arpa Radar are very important to use during navigation in both free waters and narrow waters such as in Surabaya. Therefore, to optimize the utilization of electronic navigation tools in KMP. DLN Oasis, especially Arpa Radar for collision prevention at sea when entering the Surabaya shipping channel, there are several things that can be done by the company and the captain on the ship, namely the company really conducts recruitment by taking into account the competence of the crew who will work on the ship, the captain of the ship must ensure that when there are, and the presence of supervision and assistance from the captain when the ship sailed in the narrow shipping channel.
