🔍 Key Concepts

• Center of gravity (G) behavior when weight is added to a ship • Difference between weight added to the ship and reserve buoyancy (volume of enclosed, watertight spaces above the waterline) • Effect of loading cargo below the original center of gravity vs. above it

💭 Think About

• When you add 200 tons of cargo into a lower cargo hold, does the ship’s overall center of gravity move up, down, or stay the same? Think about where the new weight is placed compared to the current G. • Does adding cargo from shore change how much watertight volume is above the waterline, or does it mainly affect draft and freeboard? • Ask yourself: Are you changing the shape/volume of the ship, or just how heavy it is and how that weight is distributed vertically?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify whether the cargo hold is below or above the original center of gravity of the ship. • Decide if reserve buoyancy depends on internal weight distribution or on the watertight volume above the waterline. • Confirm whether transferring cargo from shore to ship changes the ship’s structure or only its loading condition.
