1. Transverse speed: “-“ = port, Longitudinal speed: “-“astern.
2. For vessels equipped with dual water and/or ground speed systems ; data for the equipment mounted towards the
stern are reported in these fields.
VHW - Water speed (R-type only) and heading
The compass heading to which the vessel points and the speed of the vessel relative to the water.
