Weight and stability surveys

Every vessel will need one or more inclining tests during its service life. The primary aim of this test is to ascertain whether the combination of the center of gravity and lightweight falls within the acceptable limits for adequate stability. The frequency of inclining tests varies based on the vessel’s purpose and usage, whether it’s a one-time requirement, a regular occurrence (e.g., for class renewal), or following significant refits or conversions. Regardless of the reason for the inclining test, the procedure remains consistent.
