Exploration by sectors: In this search, whether it is a member of our crew, or if it is another, the first is to mark (with a buoy or on the plotter) a starting point or datum, which will be or the point that we have reference of fall or the data that they provide us.
The technique tries to explore radially from the datum with turns from 120º to starboard being the route for small boats a mile or so. Once the 3 sectors have been crossed, the course changes from 30º to starboard from the datum and the same procedure is used to explore the next sector.
