Welcome!
Cool 🆒 I appreciate this channel
Thank you!
where is the video of the sample calculation of GZ and RM..
Here is the link for that video. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lnuplc9wXdu0l8o.html
very useful explaination.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you.
in your next video sir can you also share how to determine the fwd and aft draft from the given mean midship draft
I will, thank you for your comment.
awesome video! many thnaks for understanding.
You are welcome! Thanks.
Los Angeles to tokyo naman po
I will mske a seperate video for that. Thank you.
we all need to look many time this kind of useful information as officers and masters thank you for the effort
Thank you for your appreciation! It's great to hear that you found the information useful.
what is the difference between FWA and DWA?
FWA is the number of millimeters by which the mean draft changes when a ship passes from saltwater to freshwater, or vice versa, while floating at the loaded draft. This is typically measured when a ship is moving from seawater to freshwater, such as when entering a river or a lake. Dock Water Allowance (DWA): DWA is the number of millimeters by which the mean draft changes when a ship passes from saltwater to dock water, or vice versa, when the ship is loaded to the Summer displacement. Dock water is a type of water with a density between that of seawater and freshwater. DWA is typically measured when a ship is moving from seawater to dock water, or vice versa, while in a dock or a shipyard. FWA is the change in draft when a ship sails from seawater to freshwater or vice versa, while DWA is the change in draft when a ship sails from seawater to dock water or vice versa or from dock water to another dock water with different water densities. The key difference is the type of water involved, with FWA involving a transition between seawater and freshwater or vice versa, and DWA involving a transition between seawater and dock water or vice versa.
@@nauticalacademy001 so we can calculate the change of draft by FWA value and TPC value with the given formula DWA= change in draft= displacement * change in density/ 0,025
Thanks a lot

Welcome.
I was confusing about this topic for long time and now I got a clear concept and thanks from the bottom of my heart for informative video .
Thank you for your comment and you're most welcome.
Great content, thank you
Welcome.
Hi, at the last example, ive notice that you calculate as if the ship is going from higher R.density to Lower R.density. But as the example ship is depart from 1.007 to 1.018. Draft should rise then right? It should be decrease in draft. Kindly clarify. By the way great animation and lessons. Thank you🙂
Hi! Thank you for your comment. In my last example, in the final step, I subtracted the dock water allowance from the departure draft to find the arrival draft, since the ship sails from a lower R. density (1.007) to a higher R. density (1.018). The effect on the ship upon reaching higher density, she will rise, and as a result, there will be a decrease in the ship’s draft. That is why DWA should be subtracted from the dep. draft to find the arrival draft as shown in my final step which is also stated in your comment, a decrease in the arrival draft. Maybe you are confused when I take the difference of the departure and arrival relative density because, in my solutions, I have shown (1.018 - 1.007) which is the arrival R.D 1.018 minus the dep. R.D 1.007. What I did is subtract the lesser from the greater R.D. so that I would have a positive DWA, but this procedure does not affect the ship’s draft yet. As you mentioned in your comment the ship will rise in this problem, and there should be a decrease in the ship’s draft “You are right”. That is why in my final step, I have subtracted the DWA from the dep. draft to determine the arrival draft because the effect is a decrease in draft. Now you can also follow this format (1.007 - 1.018) which is departure R.D 1.007 minus arrival R.D 1.018, you will have a negative DWA. A negative DWA should be subtracted from the departure draft, and the result will be a decrease in the arrival draft as shown in my final step. Thank you very much👨
thank you very much for your detailed answer sir, your channel is very helpful and insightful. plus the animation is superb. make it more easy to understand. have a great day.
Welcome.
Awesome man
Thank you.
What meaning constant 90? Is that in meters or ton? Is that all ships will be same constant 90?
There are several formulas to find the scope of the anchor, others use the numerical ratio to find the number of anchor shackles to be dropped depending on the weather conditions. You can use any method that you prefer as long as you comply with the company's Quality Management System (QMS) Manual.
Very helpfull, thanks alot
Welcome.
Good
Thank you.
Correction for the magnetic variation from the compass rose. The answer is 6.75 deg, E or 6.8 deg.E, not 4.75 deg.
Please can you clarify the conversion of how 6 degrees 45 minutes became 4.75 degrees.
Thank you for your comment. The magnetic variation should be 6.75 deg. E or 6.8 deg. E, not 4.75 deg. E. Thank you for calling my attention.
Good day sir, how did you get 21H?
Subtracting 2H to ZD 5 is can not be, you need to borrow 1day on the date which is equivalent to 24 hours, then add that 24 hours to 02H, so you have now 26H minus the ZD 5, the answer is 21H.
Good information sir thank you
Welcome.
coloque nombre a cada parte del ancla x favor
I will make a seperate video about the parts of the anchor. Thank you for your comment.
Thank you sir
Welcome.
What about the water depth, sir?
Thank for the comment. Depth of the water will be applied when you determine the number of anchor shackles to be dropped. Here is the link in my video how to determine the number of shackles in a specific depth of water in different weather conditions: kzread.info/dash/bejne/eXeH0JZ9ftCydc4.html
Regarding to this time calculation, could you please kindly create a video clip sharing with us on how to compose a plan of changing time zones. Let say our voyage is from Yokohama to Panama.
I will.
Good day.When we calculate safety depth which tide we minus MLW or MHW?
Typically, the safety contour is established by considering the lowest astronomical tide (LAT) or mean low water springs (MLWS). Mean Low Water Springs (MLWS) represents the average lowest water level that occurs during spring tides over an extended period. Spring tides occur when the sun and moon are aligned, causing higher high tides and lower low tides. Using MLWS as a reference provides a conservative approach to ensure that the charted depths are sufficient for navigation under most tidal conditions. So, in the context of determining the safety contour, you would subtract the anticipated tidal range from the charted depths based on MLWS or a similar reference level to ensure safe navigation during varying tidal conditions.
@@nauticalacademy001It means that when we find Safety depth/contour=Dynamic draft + Catzoc+UKC-HoT(MLWS) I'm I right?
Thanks I learned a lot.
You're welcome.
Correction for the formula that I've shown: Righting Lever (GZ) = GM x Sine0 (Angle of Heel) Righting Moment (RM) = GZ x Displacement
Is it possible to send me a copy of excel you used for the calculation?
yes.

Which draft will be change, if there's correction? F, M or aft?
When a ship moves from water of higher density to lower density, or vice versa, a phenomenon known as "sinkage" or "rise" affects the ship's draft. This is often called "density effect" or "density correction." The change in water density influences the ship's buoyancy, causing the entire vessel to "sink or rise" by a few centimeters in the water. This will cause a change in the ship's draft both forward and aft including the mean draft. Thank you for the comment.
Sorry What does that GM mean ??
The term "GM" in the context of a ship refers to the metacentric height, a critical parameter for assessing the stability of a floating vessel. The metacentric height is denoted by the symbol "GM." GM is the vertical distance between the center of gravity (G) of a ship and its metacenter (M) when the vessel is tilted or heeled due to an external force (such as a wave or wind). A positive GM (GM > 0) indicates a stable initial equilibrium meaning that the ship tends to return to an upright position after being tilted. A negative GM (GM < 0) indicates an unstable initial equilibrium meaning that the ship tends to continue tilting and may be prone to capsizing. Thank you for the comment.
thanks
