A series of model experiments has been conducted with a stern trawler model, in which the main parameters governing the motion of a side launched vessel were systematically varied.

    The paper presents the results of the tests in the form of dimensionless equations to enable launching characteristics of similar vessels to be predicted in advance.

    Practical applications of the results are discussed.
