«chambre de navigation» : PEROB 1977 ne définit pas ce terme. Tout comme chart house et chart room, chambre de navigation et chambre des cartes sont souvent synonymes, mais pas nécessairement. Le choix de l'équivalent convenable reste à l'utilisateur, mais je choisirais chambre de navigation pour désigner l'abri contigu à la passerelle si le navire en question dispose également d'une chambre où sont rangés les cartes et d'autres instruments de navigation.

OBS

«salle de pointage» : vedette retenue après l'épuration du fichier, en provenance d'une fiche TC8gu.
