This course delivers an advanced operational framework for managing complex vessel stability, trim, and draft variations without relying on manual formula writing. Participants will learn how to oversee multi-grade cargo loading, heavy lifts, and drydocking operations, focusing on how shifting weights alter the ship’s overall profile. The training provides practical techniques to track draft changes forward and aft, manage the dangerous free surface effect of liquids, and balance hull forces. Officers will master the skills needed to eliminate structural stress, avoid excessive hogging or sagging, and maximize fuel efficiency through precise draft and trim optimization.
