The document discusses vessel stability, including: - Initial stability refers to a vessel's stability from 0 to 7 degrees of heel. Overall stability is a general measure of a vessel's ability to resist capsizing. - The center of buoyancy (B) is the point where the total buoyancy force acts. It shifts upwards as a vessel heels. The center of gravity (G) is the point where all weights are concentrated. - The metacenter (M) is the intersection of the vertical line through B and the line of action of buoyancy as B shifts. As B moves up, M moves down. A higher metacenter means greater initial stability. - Positive stability exists when

Editor's Notes
- #25: Technically the reserve buoyancy of a ship is measured from the waterline to the DC deck. The minimum amount of reserve buoyancy required to meet a ship’s stability design criteria is from the limiting draft marks to the DC deck. RESERVE BUOYANCY IS OUR FRIEND!!!
- #63: VESSEL IN FORGROUND NORMALLY SAILS WITH 4-5 PEOPLE. VESSEL IN BACKGROUND NORMALLY SAILS WITH 7-8 PEOPLE. AS A “JOKE” THE VESSEL IN THE BACKGROUND “BOARDED” THE VESSEL IN THE FOREGROUND. I.E. LARGE TOPSIDE WEIGHT ADDITION. REMEMBER “G STARTS OFF NEAR THE WATERLINE.”
- #64: IMMEDIATELY START TO LIST DUE TO NEUTRAL GM… POSSIBLY SLIGHTLY NEGATIVE
- #65: THEY ARE AT THE NEUTRAL STABILITY POINT OR SLIGHTLY NEGATIVE GM POINT. NOTICE THAT THE MAIN SAIL IS NOT FILLED WITH WIND.
- #66: AS SOON AS THE SAIL FILLS…
- #67: OVER THEY GO. NOTICE INDIVIDUAL IN PINK (WHO WAS THE HIGHEST OF THE TOPSIDE WEIGHT ADDITIONS) WALKS DOWN THE MAST.
- #70: GETS TO THE KEEP AND …
- #71: STARTS HELPING PEOPLE IN THE WATER.
- #72: THEN THEY FILE THE INSURANCE CLAIM. MORAL OF THE STORY: NEUTRAL GM IS AS BAD AS NEGATIVE GM BECAUSE IF YOU GET TO THE NEUTRAL STABILITY POINT, SOMETHING OUT OF YOUR CONTROL LIKE WIND, WAVES, RUDDER FORCES ETC, WILL “PUSH” YOU OVER THE EDGE AND YOU WILL CAPSIZE. THE GOAL OF THE DCA IS TO KEEP WELL CLEAR OF THE NEUTRAL STABILITY POINT.
