227. Which would be the BEST condition for your vessel to enter into pack ice?
A slight trim by the stern (a drag of 2-3 feet) is optimal for entering pack ice, allowing the bow to ride up on the ice and protecting the propeller and rudder. This trim balances ice-breaking ability with propulsion efficiency and steering, avoiding the risks associated with an even keel or a bow-heavy trim.
