A ship leaves port with drafts 7.6 m F and 7.9 m A; 400 tonnes of bunkers are burned from a space whose centre of gravity is 15 m forward of the centre of flotation, which is amidships. TPC 20 tonnes. MCT 1 cm = 300 tonnes m. Find the minimum amount of water which must be run into the forepeak tank (centre of gravity 60 m forward of the centre of flotation) in order to bring the draft aft to the maximum of 7.7 m. Find also the final draft forward.
