Ship Stability Diagram: Center of Gravity vs. Center of Buoyancy #2102281 (License: Personal Use)

This technical illustration depicts a ship in a heeled (tilted) condition, with labeled points for the center of gravity (CG) and center of buoyancy (CB). The vertical distance between CG and CB generates a righting moment that restores equilibrium. The wavy line represents the water surface, emphasizing hydrostatic principles in naval architecture.

Used in maritime education, naval engineering textbooks, and safety training materials to explain static stability and metacentric height concepts; targets students, engineers, and mariners seeking foundational knowledge of vessel stability.
