🔍 Key Concepts

• Bank effects in restricted waters when a vessel moves close to a riverbank or canal side • Difference between pressure on the near bank side of the bow versus suction on the opposite side or stern • How the bow is physically pushed away from the nearer bank by a buildup of water

💭 Think About

• Which term refers to increased water pressure forming a cushion between the hull and the bank, rather than a pulling/suction action? • Think about what would physically force the bow away from the nearer bank: is that a push (pressure) or a pull (suction)? • Which options describe pushing out versus drawing in toward the bank, and which ones are more general or combined phenomena?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which term clearly suggests a pushing/pressure effect rather than a pulling effect • Eliminate any term that sounds like it would draw the vessel toward the bank instead of pushing it away • Distinguish between single effects (pressure vs suction) and any term that implies more than one effect acting together
