Incr. in draft due to pitch (metres) Note 2 0.20 UNDER-KEEL CLEARANCE in Feet 16.08

Incr. in draft due to heave (sea / swell) 0.50 Height of obstruction (m) as charted

Block Coefficient for Corrected Mean draft 0.88 OVERHEAD CLEARANCE in Metres

Increase due to Squat ( + ) 0.88 IS VESSEL IN CONFINED WATERS? NO

MAXIMUM DYNAMIC DRAFT 13.42 OVERHEAD CLEARANCE in Feet

Intended transit speed (KTS) 10.00

(Must be speed through water)

Note 1: Heel is the maximum combined effect of any list plus roll plus heel due to alteration of course
Note 2: Increase in draft due to pitching motion may be derived from draft gauges or by reading angle of
pitch from an inclinometer in the F/A plane (if fitted) or by estimating pitch angle, then using the formula:
INCREASE IN DRAFT DUE TO PITCH = (LENGTH OVERALL) / 2 X SIN(PITCH ANGLE).

Note 3: Trim correction must be applied to the draft at the Aft (or For'd) perpendicular to obtain the draft
at the vessel's highest point, in order to obtain the correct air draft.
