Abstract:
The research was conducted in June 2014 at Fishing Vessel Laboratory of Department of Fishing Technology, Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Science, University of Riau. The objective of the research is to compare the ship stability of a hull as a part of ship safety standart which is designed with hardchine and no hardchine. Both vessels will be kept in the same displacement with error no more than 5% of its modification. The hullform was modelled in Hydromax which is known as a powerfull software in marine vessel. The results show that chine effects the stability of a vessel around 4-7% and will be discussed clearly in this article.
