Too much ship model examinations have been carried out for understanding the ship’s manoeuvrability. A little data of full-scale ship examinations can be obtained because it is difficult and expensive for researchers. In this paper, the zig-zag test was done by a training ship equipped with a lot of measure apparatus and fin stabilizer, and then the manoeuvrability indexes K and T was been calculated by the Nomoto method and test data, finally, the effect of fin stabilizer on the manoeuvrability of the ship was obtained relying on the analyzed results.
