Abstract
In this paper results will be presented of tests with models sailing in head waves at restricted water depths of 1.875, 2.5 and 3.75 times the ship’s draught. Also results will be given of calculated ship motions in deep water. No attention will be paid to ship motions in shallow water.
A discussion will he given about the influences of the water depth on the ship motions. It will be shown how the ship motions at restricted water depths can he determined from the ship motions in deep water.
