Pls explain Dick O' Kane targeting

I printed out his directions and tried using it for the 1st time and missed. I was probably too close to set up for hitting at 90 deg. How close should I get for plotting the AOB, etc? I did email the author similar questions but want to see if others have suggestions.

The other question I had was how can you ensure the target remains 90 deg to your boat? I don't understand how to figure out the target's course. Can someone pls clarify? From what I understand in your directions, you draw a line from where it is currently and intersect it with your sub's course.

TIA!
