🔍 Key Concepts

• Transverse stability deals with how the ship resists rolling from side to side • Which vessel data gives you displacement, KM, KB, and righting arms (GZ) at different drafts and heel angles • Difference between plan drawings (how the ship is laid out) and stability data (how the ship floats and returns upright)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When you do a GM or GZ calculation, what specific numerical data or curves do you normally look up in the stability booklet? • Which choice actually provides you with values that change with draft and water density, rather than just showing the vessel’s layout or shape? • Think about what information you need from tables or graphs to plot a righting arm curve or evaluate initial stability.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option contains tabulated/graphical hydrostatic properties (like displacement, KM, KB, drafts) versus simple drawings • Confirm which source you would use directly in a GM (metacentric height) or GZ (righting arm) calculation • Eliminate any choices that only show layout or structure but do not provide numerical stability data across drafts
