🔍 Key Concepts

• Using the white pages hydrostatic curves for SS AMERICAN MARINER (displacement vs. mean draft) • Calculating the ship’s LCG from the load items and comparing it to the hydrostatic LCB to find trim and its direction • Converting trim in inches to change of draft forward and aft using MT1" or MTC and the vessel’s length between perpendiculars

💭 Think About

• After you add these loads to the lightship and constants, what is the total displacement, and what mean draft on the hydrostatic curves corresponds to that displacement? • Is your calculated LCG forward or aft of the LCB from the curves, and does that mean the vessel trims by the bow or by the stern? • Once you know the total trim in inches, how do you split that trim into a change of draft forward and aft to reach the final drafts?

✅ Before You Answer

• Double‑check the total longitudinal moments (tons × LCG) and the division by total tons to get LCG from the FP • Verify you are using the correct LCB and MT1"/MTC values for the mean draft that matches your displacement (interpolate if needed) • Confirm that the algebra of trim is correct: increasing draft at one end and decreasing at the other so that the mean draft stays consistent with the displacement
