The paper gives a concise overview of the activities concerning the definition of standards for the manoeuvring behaviour of ships during the last fifty years with special attention to the work performed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). Based on HSVA's (Hamburg Ship Model Basin) manoeuvring data base and on supplementary numerical simulations for more than fifty recently tested ship models, all of which were dynamically unstable in yaw, an improved insight into the behaviour of such vessels is given. Furthermore, a proposal is presented which allows the interpretation of the results of the 10 deg/10 deg standard zig-zag manoeuvre in a more rational manner.
