Finding an ETA with 1 in 60

An aircraft obtains a pinpoint at "A", 2 NM left of flight path at 0515 UTC. At 0530 UTC, after maintaining a constant heading (and TAS) another pinpoint is obtained at "B", 3.5 NM right of the flight path and 26 NM. From "A", the alteration of heading necessary at "B" (to make good the FPT at a DR position "C", 38 NM from "B" and the ETA at that DR position and respectively.

I worked out the problem and I got 19 degree left but I could not figure out the ETA time. Does anyone know how to work this out?

Cheers
