🔍 Key Concepts

• cargo trimming lights on bulk carriers and cargo vessels • relationship between list (leaning of the vessel) and loading operations • difference between a slight list, a severe list, and where to direct cargo flow

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Is this light telling you how to load (where to send the cargo), or is it telling you what the ship is doing (its list)? • Think about the word trimming: does it normally refer to the vessel’s heel/list, or the direction of cargo distribution within the hold? • If only the starboard trimming light is on, what does that suggest about which side needs more weight, or what condition is being indicated?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check what trimming lights are installed for: are they an automatic warning of list, or an aid to directing cargo to one side of the hold? • Consider whether a severe list would usually trigger an automatic stop to loading, or require a different type of alarm or instruction than a simple trimming light. • Verify whether the presence of the word “about” or “severe” in the options matches what a simple white trimming light would realistically indicate.
