XCapt Menon lays too much stress on COMMERCIAL KNOWLEDGE, ISM. Most of the times he gives hint also if you are telling something wrong. Subconsciously he also judges by the confidence of the Candidate.

Q. 1285) You are berthed alongside stb side.onshore wind. you have a ship 25m forward and 25m aft berthed. how will you cast off ? no tug
X1. Single up to a spring line F and A
2. Slack fwd spring, Hard port, kick ahead.
3. vl will swing to port, the onshore will wind will help by acting more on the accommodation block.
4. Once the vl ahead comes on stbd bow, let go all lines, mid ship rudder, dead slow ahead and come out clear.
Note- In the single up position the vl is safely held by the spring lines since they provide the largest proportion of longitudinal restraint and the onshore wind keeps the vl alongside.
Mariners who passed said that they will give a short kick with Port Rudder, let it swing a little port and a little ahead, drop port anchor to stop onshore drift and then Astern kick to clear ...While Capt menon was not very happy with this but he agreed to it.

Make sure all shore cranes and gantries have been cleared away from ur shipside.Cast of all lines aft, keep only 1 headline and 1 fwd spring. make sure ur springline is tight(this can be done by heaving ur headline) and give a kick ahead. This will cause an effect of moving the stern out and the bow will close in towards the berth. A close watch must be kept on ur bulbous bow. When ur stern has moved out sufficiently,give a stern movement and simultaneously cast off all lines. Give a stbd helm while doing so, so as to counter the transverse thrust.

Type A ships
A type A ship is one which:
(a). is designed to carry only liquid cargoes in bulk;
(b). has a high integrity of the exposed deck with only small access openings to cargo compartments, closed by watertight gasketed covers of steel or equivalent material; and
(c). has low permeability of loaded cargo compartments.
(3). A type A ship, if over 150 m in length, to which a freeboard less than type B has been assigned, when loaded in accordance with the requirements of paragraph (11), shall be able to withstand the flooding of any compartment or compartments, with an assumed permeability of 0.95, consequent upon the damage assumptions specified in paragraph (12), and shall remain afloat in a satisfactory condition of equilibrium, as specified in paragraph (13). In such a ship, the machinery space shall be treated as a floodable compartment, but with a permeability of 0.85.
(4). A type A ship shall be assigned a freeboard not less than that based on table 28.1.
