It is demonstrated that problem of determining actual weight of wet spoil contained in hopper of ship, excluding extraneous water, is soluble with aid of simple formula which may be implemented in graph form; method may be used in conjunction with hydrostatic curves for vessel in question, or preferably with displacement scales; derivation of formula and graph, and examples, are given.
