Ukc Calculation Form

This document provides a tool for calculating under keel clearance for vessels. It includes fields to input vessel details like length, draft, and displacement. It then calculates squat (downward vessel movement) based on these details and waterway width. Minimum net under keel clearance is calculated for different vessel speeds and situations (underway, alongside). The tool determines if sufficient clearance exists for the vessel to safely proceed or berth.
