Results are presented of an investigation of the effect of forward speed on the initial transverse stability of three models of a fast containership. The tests at 100% displacement on even keel and at 80% displacement with 0,01 L trim by the stern were carried out in the experimental tank of the Ship Hydromechanics Laboratory of the Delft University of Technology. Also some quasi-static calculations have been carried out of the initial transverse stability of the moving ship on basis of measured wave profiles along the models, the results of which were compared with the results of the experiments.
