SINGLE POINT GROUNDING
SINGLE POINT GROUNDING A vessel floating at drafts forward 8.70 m, aft 9.40 m grounds at a point 30 m aft of the forward perpendicular. Estimate the drafts of the vessel and the GM after the tide has fallen by 70cm. MCTC 340 t-m, TPC 28, KG 7.60 m, KM 8.40 m, LBP 162 m. LCF 78 m forward of Aft Perpendicular and displacement is 29 000 tonnes.
