Your sailing drafts are: FWD 19'-06", AFT 20'-10" and the GM is 3.3 feet. What will be the angle of list if the #2 starboard deep tank (capacity 100 tons, VCG 19.1 feet, and 24 feet off the centerline) is filled? (Use the data in Section 1, the blue pages, of the Stability Data Reference Book)

Question

Accepted Answer

Option C: 4&deg;. Filling the #2 starboard deep tank adds 100 tons of ballast at a 24-foot transverse arm. Using stability blue pages for displacement data, the resulting transverse heeling moment divided by displacement and 3.3 feet GM produces a list of 4 degrees.
