PROPOSED SHIPBOARD MANEUVERING DATA

This paper describes the concepts developed by SNAME Panel H-10 (Controllability) for standardized formats designed to present information on a ship's maneuvering characteristics and capabilities. The information is intended for the practical use of officers and pilots in handling a particular ship. Proposed data acquisition methods are presented together with samples of the anticipated end products. The Panel's proposals for standardized maneuvering information are still in draft form, and the authors will welcome comments and criticism thereon.
