William E. George's Stability and Trim for the Ship's Officer explains how a ship's weight, buoyancy and loading affect its stability and trim, and how officers calculate and control them. This 4th edition, published by Cornell Maritime Press in 2005, was the first update in 22 years.
New chapters cover the mathematical and physical prerequisites for the subject and the stability questions found on Coast Guard license examinations, making the book useful both for exam preparation and for officers responsible for loading decisions.
