The paper presents an example of the application of RANSE method for the simulation of ship motion in waves. A finite-volume flow solver extended with the rigid body motion module and the numerical wavemaker was used for the simulation. Presented results for the free drop of a prism show good accuracy and robustness of the model. Results for the motion of a ship in regular waves agree satisfactorily with the strip theory.
