🔍 Key Concepts

• Load line (Plimsoll mark) purpose on a ship's side • Relationship between freeboard and ship safety • How load line relates to stability vs. loading limits

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: What does the load line physically mark on the hull, and what condition does that represent? • Which option describes a limit on how deeply the vessel may be loaded in the water, rather than an internal stability characteristic? • Does the load line control a calculation inside the vessel (like GM), or an external visible reference for safe loading?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is directly about how low the ship may sit in the water • Separate stability characteristics (like GM and transverse stability) from loading limits • Consider which term is connected to the vertical distance from the waterline to the deck on a loaded ship
