With a focus on safety, regulatory compliance, and best practices, this course equips participants with the skills needed to safeguard lives and assets at sea.

To calculate a ship's stability and be able to load maximum cargo, it is imperative that the density of the dock water in which the ship is floating is determined. To do so, the correct use of the hydrometer should be learned. This course not only provides the theoretical use and importance of hydrometers but also includes a video demonstrating its application.

Ships earn money by carrying cargo between ports; more cargo means more money.

How much cargo can a ship carry? Well, that depends on her Loadline.
