142. Which shallow water effect will increase dramatically if you increase your ship's speed past its «critical speed»?
Squatting is the correct answer. Exceeding a ship's critical speed in shallow water causes a rapid increase in pressure drop and return flow under the hull, resulting in a dramatic rise in squat, which is the combined effect of sinkage and trim.
