Abstract

In the weather ship's routing, it is very important to take account of the permission of the encountered wind speed and wave height and functionize them in weather ship's routing simulation models. To clarify the navigators' permission of encountered maximum wind speed and wave height in the ship's routing simulation, the questionnaire and the routing simulation were made to navigators of ripe experience. According to the questionnaire, for the safety navigation the permission of the maximum wind speed was the Gale rank in the Beaufort wind scale. Navigators had two permission of the maximum wave heights of 5 to 8m and 10 to 12m. From the results of the weather routing simulation by navigators using the optimum weather routing soft ware, for the safety navigation the encountered maximum wind speed and wave height were 30 to 40 knots and 7m at against winds and waves, 30 knots and 5 to 8m at lateral winds and waves, and 40 knots and 11m at following winds and waves, respectively.
