Ship Stability Video 22 - Why GZ curve is also called Curve of Statical Stability

A few basic things must be taught to a marine student at the start of his career. But I have seldom found a senior mariner also to know the answer to above question. In this video, this concept is explained in a simple way using chalk and board.
Capt.S.S.Chaudhari is an Indian Merchant Navy Captain with 45 years of experience under his belt including 29 years of teaching and training professionals. He is from ‘1978-79’, T.S. Rajendra batch.

I wish that you put more time explaining the complex bit that you bring toward the conclusion. The easy bits we can find in the books. The complex bit is what leaving me asking for more.
Still...you are the best

Thanks.

Sir this is one of the best explanation. But sir it would have been really helpful if you had explained how the curve curves down after some point.

[@capt.s.s.chaudhari5181]

The GZ depends on the product of the volume of wedge and distance between the shift of buoyancies of wedges.
