🔍 Key Concepts

• Meaning of length between perpendiculars (LBP) on an inspected vessel • Difference between overall length (LOA), waterline length (LWL), and load line length (LLL) • Understanding deepest operating draft and how it relates to the design waterline

💭 Think About

• Which definition specifically mentions the distance between perpendiculars located at the forward and after ends of the design waterline? • How does overall length (LOA) differ from a length measured only along the waterline at deepest draft? • Which of these lengths is most important for stability, tonnage, and load line calculations rather than just the vessel’s total physical size?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which abbreviation is defined as distance between forward and after perpendiculars on the design waterline • Eliminate any terms that refer to total tip‑to‑tip hull length regardless of draft • Verify which terms are used in load line and tonnage measurement regulations for inspected vessels
