C. Moving a weight forward
D. All of the above
C - as this alone influences the LCG of the vessel.
ReplyDeleteYes, C is the best answer.
ReplyDeleteMoving weight lower dose not affect Trim, it will affect initial stability, GM.
Adding reasonsbly small weights will not change trim but it will change draft. If the change in draft is large enough to change LCF and LCB then the trim will change.
So to answer this question you must assme the weightis small.
