3 STABILITY AND BUOYANCY
3.1 STABILITY DATA
- Fully laden displacement was used to evaluate the stability and buoyancy of the boat. The
value of this displacement can be found in paragraph ’ Technical specifications ’ at the
beginning of this manual.
- Any changes in the distribution of loads onboard (for example by adding a raised structure
for fishing, fitting a radar or in-mast furling, changing the engine etc.) can significantly affect the
boat's stability, trim and its performance ;
- It is important to keep water in the bilges to a minimum ;
- The boat's stability is affected by adding to the weight of the superstructure ;
- In heavy weather it is important to close all the hatches, lockers and doors to minimise the
risk of water pouring in ;
- The boat's stability can be reduced when towing a boat or when using a davit or boom to lift
a heavy load ;
- Breaking waves are a serious threat to stability.
-Reduce speed in waves.
-Always adjust the speed and heading of your boat according to the sea
conditions.
-All of the watertight hatches must remain closed when at sea.
