Which technique could be used to give a more comfortable roll to a stiff vessel?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — Concentrate weights on upper decks
Concentrating weights on upper decks raises the vessel's center of gravity (G), which decreases the metacentric height (GM), lengthens the roll period, and transforms a harsh, stiff vessel into a more comfortably rolling tender ship.
