🔍 Key Concepts

• Loading sequence for M.V. GRAND HAVEN in the Guidance Manual (pay attention to the specific step that covers loading through hatches 5 & 7 with one belt loader) • Relationship between tons loaded and change of mean draft (use the ship’s tons-per-inch immersion or tons-per-foot data from the manual) • How intermediate drafts compare to the final desired mean draft of 25'-02" when following the recommended sequence

💭 Think About

• When you follow the recommended sequence, at what mean draft should you start loading through hatches 5 & 7, and what is the target draft after this step? • Using the vessel’s hydrostatic/tonnage data, how many tons are needed to change the mean draft from the starting draft (for this step) to the desired 25'-02"? • Do the loading tables in the GRAND HAVEN manual give a direct figure for tons through 5 & 7 for that specific mean draft, or do you need to interpolate between two listed drafts?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm the exact step and table in the GRAND HAVEN Guidance Manual that refers to loading through hatches 5 & 7 with a single belt loader • Verify the starting mean draft just before loading hatches 5 & 7 in the recommended sequence • Double-check your unit conversions (feet-inches vs decimal feet) and that you use the correct tons-per-inch/foot value from the manual for this loading condition
