Consider a ship to be
floating at rest in still
water and on an even
keel as shown in
Figure
The center of gravity
(G) and the center of
buoyancy (B) will be in
the same vertical line
and the ship will be
displacing her own
weight of water.
So W = b.

Consider a ship
floating on an even
keel as shown in Figure
(a). The ship is in
equilibrium.
Now shift the weight
`w' forward through a
distance of `d' meters.

Let this weight now be shifted aft a distance of `d' meters. The
ship will trim about F1 and change the trim `t' cms by the stern as
shown in Figure.
W1C is a line drawn parallel to the keel.
`A' represents the new draft aft and `F' the new draft forward. The
trim is therefore equal to A - F and, since the original trim was
zero, this must also be equal to the change of trim.

Let `x' represent the change of draft aft due to the change
of trim and let `y' represent the change forward.

EXAMPLE#1
A ship 126m long is floating at drafts of 5.5m F and 6.5m A. The center of
flotation is 3m aft of amidships. MCT 1 cm . 240 tonnes m. Displacement
= 6000 tonnes. Find the new drafts if a weight of 120 tonnes already on
board is shifted forward a distance of 45 meters.

EXAMPLE#2
A box-shaped vessel 90m x 10m x 6m floats in salt water
on an even keel at 3m draft F and A. Find the new drafts if
a weight of 64 tonnes already on board is shifted a
distance of 40 meters aft.
