Stowage planning is a tedious job. It involves technical and administrative tasks. Evolving data along the process and information completeness should be considered, when dealing with the updating of stowage plans. Recent IMO Regulations have brought forward a set of advanced stability criteria, far beyond the computation of metacentric height. The paper outlines the challenges on the implementation of proper stowage planning practices from the perspectives of safety and operational efficiency.
