Exercise 4
• A patrol boat of Finnish Coastguard, ”VMV 11” from
1935 is in Maritime Museum Vellamo, Kotka. Her LWL =
24,7 m and displacement 35 t. During the sea test her
maximum speed was 23,5 knots and her engines were
100 hp (cruising) + 2 x 520 hp (speeding).
• What is the highest Froude number of “VMV 11”?
• What should be her engine power by Gerr?
• How many per cent is the difference? (1 hp = 0,746 kW)
• How would you describe the hull shape and performance
of “VMV 11”?

The transversal center of gravity of
a part is yi. Reference point is at
m i centerline

The vertical center of gravity of a
Vertical : VCG part is zi. Reference point usually is
m i the lowest keel point of the hull.

Floating Position
A floating object always takes up a balance where
the center of gravity (G) and the center of
buoyancy (B) align vertical.
G = Center of Gravity
B = Center of Buoyancy
