🔍 Key Concepts

• Mean draft as used in stability and trim calculations • How draft is read at the forward and aft draft marks • Difference between center of buoyancy and center of flotation

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: when we talk about a vessel or MODU’s mean draft, which two specific measurements are we averaging? • Which of the choices are points inside the hull versus measured drafts on the hull? • Is mean draft defined by a special point like center of buoyancy/flotation, or by a simple geometric average of readings?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which items in the choices are actual draft readings versus hydrostatic points used only in calculations. • Check your stability notes: mean draft is usually defined as involving forward and aft drafts in some way. • Be sure you are not confusing where the buoyant force acts (center of buoyancy) with how draft is measured on the hull.
