Abstract
An extensive experimental program for measuring, recording and analyzing free roll decay curves for three models representative of small fishing vessels was carried out. One of the objectives of this program is to study the form of the roll damping moment. The results indicate that a linear plus linear angle dependent form fits best the experimental data of a heavily damped hull. The linear plus quadratic velocity dependent form fits best the experimental data obtained for a lightly damped model.
