OUUton, 4. Miaiitonofiioh.
tion of these curves will bear out the statement previously made that the steepness of the front part is dependent upon the metacentric height. That for the Miantonomoh is stefepest, this vessel having a metacentric height of about 14 feet. Of the others the Captain had a height of 2*6 feet, and the corresponding information for the remainder has been previously given (page 23).
A comparison of the curves for the Captain and Monarch exhibits the great influence of fre
...eboard or height from the water line of the upper deck amidships at the side, -on the area and range of curves of stability. The displacements of these two ships only differ by 4 or 5 per cent., and their proportions are not greatly different, the great variation in the two designs being in the matter of freeboard. The Monarch has 14 feet, whereas the Captain possessed 6^ feet only. In consequence of the slightly smaller metacentric height of the former, her curve of stability falls at first below that for the Captain ; but she has a total range of stability of 69^ degrees, reaching her position of maximum stability at 40 degrees — where the G Z is 21| inches — whereas the Captain has a total range of 54^ degrees only, and reaches her position of maximum stability at 21 degrees, at which angle she has a G Z of only 10| inches.
