Thg hydpmeter is used to determine the relative density of fluids, including the dock water in whcn the vesseI is floating and liquid cargo densities. It maY be nteGssiy when in pot to calculate the dock water allowance by use of the formula :
DWA=FWA(1025-D)
Where D =- dock water densi. This will then be used to ensure that js lhg ship correctly loaded to her marks. Ships iydrometers are-usually made Lead shot of polished steel or brass, though they can also be made from glass. A bulb weighted with lead shot or mercury acts to keep the graduated stem upright. The operation of the hydrometer is based upon the Laws of Floatation, where the mass of the hydrometer is constant. Tb determine the density of dock water the following procedure should be qdopted:

Since GM is negative, the tangent along which the GZ curve initially follows runs below the base. As the vessel heels over to larger angles of inclination the GZ curve departs from the tangent and where it crosses the base is the angle of loll (approximately 11o in this case). In theory this could be to the port or the starboard side since G is assumed to be on the
centre-line whereby port and starboard moments are equal.

During the course of a voyage the stability of the ship should be closely monitored. It is recommended that a calculation of flud GM and a coTesponding GZ curve be produced fo the wost anticpated condition. Calculations should be done for both departure and anticipated arrival conditions, these being adjusted.to suit any changes that may take place as the voyage
progtesses.
1.
Alter course to pul the ship's heod into lhe predominan wave.
An angle;of loll situation may arise in ships carrying timber deck cargoes. Deck cargoes will absorb moisture causing G to risd.'fuel and water will also be consumed from low down in
that may have been initially full. These effects should be
accounted for. Poor tank management may cause excessive free surface moments, leading to a simila loss of stability'
the ship raising G further due to the removal of weight from low down in the ship and the introduction of free surfaces in tanks
lolled to the same side. Wave action may cause the ship to roll through the vertical to loll on the other side. This is a dangerous situation since the ship will heel from the vertical of it's own accord and the momentum it will have in lolling over to the other side may be suffcient to capsize it. In any event, the ship will initially heel beyond the angle of loll before settling at the angle of loll whereby cargo shift may result which will worsen
the situation further.
2.
Unfortunately things do not always go to plan and mistakes may be made in calculations. Any number of things might happen such as a collision or a fire where water is introduced into a compartment for fire fighting purposes. Whatever the cause, a situation might arise whereby you find that the ship is lying at an unexpected angle of inclination.
soundings and checking for cargo shift it should be possible to account for any listing moments that may cause the ship to be in a listed situation. If it is calculated that there are no net listing moments then a case of instabili may be assumed and the ship will be lying at an angle of loll.
By verifying tank
3.
It is not possible to ascertain easily whetler a ship is listed or lolled and since the remedial action for each case is very different it is essential that the cause of the inclination be carefully investi
Correcng an angle
In carrying out (2) above it should also be evident if there are excessive free surface moments causing a loss of GM suffcient enough to make the ship unstable. In this case a loll situation may be confirmed.

It would be impractical to consider shifting weights on board using ship,s lifting equipment at sea.

In practice, the mean value of TPC must be used to determine the sinkage/rise of the ship. Similarly, the men values of MCTC and LCF must be used when calculating the change of trim. The change of trim is then apportioned to the final waterline using the Jinul LCF. If a 'hydrostatic particulqrs' table is not given, then it has to be assumed that the values of TPC, MCTC and LCF position do not significantly change i.e.
they remain constant for the range of draughts concerned.

A stip's displacement scale is usually drawn up for even keel conditions. If the ship has a rcentre of flotation otidships, such a displacement scale will always give the correct displacernent when referred to with e aridshiPs mean draght, regardless of the ship's trim. However, the centre of flotation is seldom aridships. When this is the case, the displacement given by the scale for the (amidships) mean draght will only be correct if the ship is on an even keel. If the ship is trimmed e'amidshiPs meao draght is not a true
measure of displacement on the scde.
The sketch shows a ship on an even keel waterline WL for which the displacement is W tonnes. F is abaft of amidships. If a weight is moved aft, without change of displacement, the ship rotates about F to some new waterline such as W2L2. The draught amidships changes (reduces in the case shown). If the displacement scale is now referred to with the ne, atidships mean draught the value obtained wil be the displacement up to the even keel waterline WL. This is less than the true displace,rent CD bv the weight of the layer between WL and WL. The draght at F (if referred to the displacement scale) will ve the correct displacement nd for this reason the draght at F is termed the Te Mean Draaght @,D).
