🔍 Key Concepts

• Load line (Plimsoll mark) indicates the maximum legal draft for safety and seaworthiness • How draft affects freeboard (the distance from waterline to deck) and watertight volume above the water • Difference between buoyancy, ballast, and displacement

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: What physical property of the ship is directly protected by not submerging the load line mark? • Which option refers to a safety margin that helps a vessel stay afloat when taking on extra weight, seas, or water on deck? • Are any of the options talking about something that depends on ship design or loading pattern, rather than just obeying the load line?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option is most closely linked to freeboard and watertight volume above the waterline • Eliminate any choice that describes a condition that cannot be guaranteed just by staying at or above the load line • Confirm which term refers to the ship’s extra ability to float safely beyond its current loading condition
