Complete weight and stability calculations are presented for the newly rebuilt research submarine ALVIN. Longitudinal and vertical components of the BG distance are given for the vehicle in its normal condition, and in a number of emergency conditions. Some of the post-refit certification trials also are described and test results are given. Experimentally determined values of BG are compared with the computed values.
