🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between trim and list on a vessel • Meaning of a vessel being by the stern versus by the bow • Definitions of hogging and sagging in relation to a vessel’s hull shape

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: does trimming refer to the fore-and-aft condition or the side-to-side condition of a vessel? • Think: if the stern is deeper in the water than the bow, what word is commonly used to describe that condition? • Recall: hogging and sagging describe how a vessel bends along its length—how is that different from trim?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the difference between trim (fore-and-aft) and list (port-starboard) • Confirm that hog and sag relate to hull bending, not just how deep the bow or stern sits • Match the term that specifically describes a tow with its stern lower in the water than its bow
