Why Does a Ship’s Center of Gravity (G) Rise? 16 Key Reasons l Ship Stability l COG

This video covers several reasons why the ship's Center of Gravity (G) rises. It explains the movement of the ship's center of gravity. When shifting a weight already onboard, the ship’s center of gravity always moves parallel to the movement of the center of gravity of the weight being shifted. When loading a weight, the ship’s center of gravity will always move toward the center of gravity of the weight being loaded. When discharging weight, the ship’s center of gravity moves away from the center of gravity of the weight being discharged. #stability #hydrodynamics #maritime #seafarer #seaman #bsmt #maritimestudents #seamanship
