Abstract The safety of the ship state during the voyage is ensured, among other things, by monitoring the state of the ship’s stability. A device for measuring the parameters of the ship’s motion and software for discrete motion recording into a computer have been developed in Siberian State University of Water Transport. With the use of the device, a full-scale experiment to record the motion of the motor ship “Grumant” during an operational voyage has been carried out. For this, the half-periods of rolling and their amplitudes are obtained. Amplitude-half-period distribution of rolling has been built. According to the maximum probability, the half-period of its own roll has been found from it, which makes it possible to assess the stability state of the vessel during the voyage. The spectrum of motion and rolling dispersion has been obtained. If it is possible to obtain objective information about the actual wave spectrum, this opens the way to obtaining the amplitude-frequency characteristic of the motion based on the Wiener- Khinchin theorem. This task is set as a priority for the development of research in this area with the prospect of optimizing vessel navigation in difficult hydrometeorological conditions.
