Heeling Lever Calculation Guide

The document calculates the heeling lever of a ship using wind speed, density, areas exposed to wind, displacement, positions of centers of buoyancy and wind force, and distances between these points. It determines the heeling moments from wind force on the hull and modules separately, then sums them and applies a correction based on the angle between the wind direction and the ship's heading. The total calculated heeling moment is 66.34 tonne-meters.
