🔍 Key Concepts

• Floodable length curves and what information they are designed to show • The meaning of reserve buoyancy and how it relates to damage and flooding • Difference between data for a specific vessel versus general or theoretical data

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which option clearly refers to information calculated and approved for this exact vessel’s damage stability, not just any design? • Think about whether zero permeability would be realistic for an actual damaged compartment full of water, or if that sounds like a limiting/theoretical case. • Consider which document or source would normally be carried as part of the vessel’s stability and damage control information, rather than just a manufacturer’s label.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which choice mentions curves that are prepared for the particular vessel, not for vessels in general. • Check whether the option you’re leaning toward makes physical sense regarding permeability (spaces are rarely 0% or 100% void). • Confirm that the source you pick would actually let you read off how much flooding can be tolerated before reserve buoyancy is lost.
