Possibility of Capsizing of a Dredger during Towing

Small-size dredgers are used as a standard for dredging and maintaining the depth of the fairways to seaports, as well as of the ports themselves. These vessels are characterized by limited draft and a low freeboard. The safety of such craft, in terms of their stability, in relation to the conducted...
