Question 10: High Speed Turn (8 marks) A vessel has a metacentric height GM = 0.9m. The centre of gravity can be found 4.2m above keel. The draft is d = 2.5m. C All d K (a) At a speed of v = 16kn the vessel enters a turn with a radius of 350m. Calculate the resulting heeling angle! (b) The crew of the vessel feel that the angle of heel that they are experiencing from (a) is too large. They wish the vessel to heel no more 2º. Assuming they keep the same turning radius, determine the maximum speed (in knots) at which they could travel.
