You would think a Master Mariner like you, from the golden age of
sailing would know exactly what this has to do with sailing.

Just how are you going to know how much cargo you can load when you
get your unlimited Master Mariner Sailing endorsement?
Would you care to take a shot at the answer?

How much cargo is limited by the volume of the cargo that can
fit in the hold or on deck if it should happen to be deck cargo.

How much weight of cargo is limited to the stability requirements
of the vessel combined with the safe waterline level as shown
by the Plimsole marks. Heavy cargo must be carried low so as
to not adversely affect the center of gravity of the vessel so
it becomes unstable.

We are waiting on Otm to tell us weather we should consider LCB & VCG.
If we are to assume the TPI on just a square box loading flat then it
will not matter.
