Major development such as construction of Malaysia iconic draw bridge at Terengganu River shown the reduction of width for the navigation channel surely will affect the safety of the river user. This study aims to simulate the ship navigation process along the river channel to assess the safety of the channel using the full mission ship simulator with real-time simulation approach and based model of the navigational channel and with worst weather environment. The results show the ship simulations track of the ship navigate through the navigation channel is safe, although ecountered a few obstructions along the navigating process. This paper will provide proof that the navigation channel is safe for its user and few obstructions are highlighted.
