✩ABOUT THIS VIDEO✩
In this video, we investigate the effect of squat and see how it can mean that ships hit rocks deeper than their own draft. We use the example of the QE2, which struck an uncharted shoal after experiencing squat.

Holy crap, just built a 1 billion $ boat, put the last touch of paint on it then drive it at full speed toward a bridge with a physicist telling you not to worry, it will sink down in the water due to Bernoulli’s principle. Thats a butt clenching moment if ever I heard of one.

I have used the effect to my advantage but did not know what it was called, I agree these are very educational because I only heard mention of, what we called, pressure effect once during my maritime studies. A captain, later harbour master and then lecturer talked of a US aircraft carrier approaching the east coast of Australia crossed the continental shelf into shallower water but still deep by any standard but she squatted and flooded through open portals aft and several sailors perished but the portals were 10m above waterline. So at speed , the depth changed from about 2000m to 250m, interesting story.

A tiny correction is that Oasis of the Seas didn't squat under a bridge over a river, but rather over the Great Belt strait in Denmark. She has telescoping funnels, and would have cleared the bridge by about a foot, but she barrelled at it at 23 knots, and thus gained another foot from squat. Still, 2 feet of clearance at 23 knots in a brand new ship, biggest in the world, under one of the most heavily trafficked car + train bridges in Europe, that must be a proper pucker event..

We experience exactly the same thing on our deep drafted narrowboat. Some of the UK canals are quite shallow in places you can be flat out and only be doing half the speed. also you can see the squat as the boat noticably sits lower in the water. we also experience bank effect and have also practiced the Texas chicken, works a treat if the other boater knows about it also, most don't though. Great explanation. I'm surprised the captain chose to go over such a shallow area when deep water was closeby.

I can't say I expected to hear the words 'chicken' and 'squat' in relation to ships' behaviour , but these are perfect explanations. Obviously things could've gone worse with the _QE2_ , if she'd been sailing somewhere where she could've sunk, considering the damage, but I bet that's a lesson her bridge crew never forgot.

(Don't say this loudly, but in the UK, it depends on your age as to whether you understand feet and inches or not.... I remember being at primary school and Miss Broad, our teacher, introduced a new sort of ruler. It wasn't flat as we were used to, and it had lots of smaller divisions on it... She was introducing us to centimeters! This was back in, oh, 1971 or 2, I think. To this day I continue to be more comfortable using feet and inches when I'm measuring up for furniture, or sewing, for example, as it's what my Mum and Dad used at home... Maybe now England's left the EU we'll go back to good old feet and inches, pounds, shillings and pence, and ounces, pounds and stones... 😅 😂😂 🤣🤣🤣!)

Spot on with that one. Apart from having been a Master.Mariner, before I retired, I had wa bespoke Narrow Boat built for cruising the inland waterways. This boat was 62ft long and weighed approximately 22 tons when fully fuelled up and with water tanks full. Passengers along for the ride, used to comment about the way the water level in the canal appeared to drop as we passed at 4 knots, near the bank. A narrowboat is a flat bottomed craft and the effect you mentioned was very much in evidence - I explained that if If I was travelling over. A patch of water which was c shallower than normal, I would slow right down. To many, this seemed n improbable solution - indeed, I came across, & passed boats which had become grounded, simply because they thought that their speed would carry them over. How wrong they were!.

When this video started I shouted out to my monitor "It's ground effect?!", made me really happy to see I was right.

@robinj1052
@robinj1052 Год назад
Excellent video again. Basically this is a same effect as the ground effect of an F1 car, resulting in downforce. I assume that this effect is stronger in water than in air due to the differences in density between water and air. Consequently, in water you need less speed to generate this effect. And, of course, ships don't have a suspension to prevent bottoming out 🙂 Even though it sounds a bit counter-intuitively (maybe), at slow speeds, trapping water can also work as cushion. If you berth a large vessel against a closed quay wall, with little under keel clearance and a small berthing angle, the water cannot "escape" quickly enough and will become trapped between the hull and the quay wall, consequently absorbing some of the berthing energy due to compression. This is actually taken into account when designing the fender systems. The reason this works, is because of the low speed and therefor the lack of a low pressure area along the vessels hull.

@terryboyer1342 I'm on south georgian bay (lake huron). Right now, the waters 2-3' lower than it was just 6 months ago. In 2021, it was around 5' higher than it should've been.

On top of that there’s been times where the change happens over a matter of days too, so one time you go up the water is high, you come back a few weeks later and it’s dropped substantially. Rarer but wild to see.

I remember standing along the Columbia River when a Naval ship was running up river. I don’t know what the name of the vessel was but it was a destroyer, escort or a battle ship of some kind. Had large gun batteries forward and aft. Anyway since I don’t have the cool details I did notice as it was approaching the river level dropped a foot or two like the tide went out. This is a huge river that’s a mile wide where I was give or take. After it passed it was like the tide came in and the river level was 2 feet higher than it originally started. From my uneducated observation that in a river system the vessel had to be running in less water depth than any channel sounding since it was moving MASSIVE amounts of water just from its propeller wash. I’m sure other factors of displacement ect ect were part of the effect. I had never experienced that before. It was amazing to experience in person.

Ooo this is like the Ground Effect but for ships and produces the opposite effect. Interesting.

I was fishing the south side of Sow and Pigs Reef off Cutty Hunk when that happened, didn't look like much from where I was, looked like she just slowed down. And then they radioed the USGC and said that they stuck "something"

I now know the reasoning behind something that occurs on land. The 8'10 bridge has too many moving vans where the drivers are expecting squat and aren't traveling fast enough to get under the bridge ;) This is the first time that I've ever heard about squat in a boat. As a captain of a large cruise ship they should have been well aware. 10% is nothing like the squat of up to 8ft that you mentioned.
