Abstract
    After successful conferences focussing on specific shallow or confined water challenges, the Sixth International Conference on Ship Manoeuvring in Shallow and Confined Water (6th MASHCON) has a non-exclusive focus on port manoeuvres. Many of these manoeuvres occur in the vicinity of moored ships, leading to passing ship effects on the moored ships. These forces are potentially very large in magnitude and are typically long period excitations, which the ship’s mooring system needs to respond to. This can lead to unsafe situations, when mooring line forces and/or ship motions exceed set thresholds. To open a joint research effort on the validation and verification of the different research methods, the Knowledge Centre Manoeuvring in Shallow and Confined Water has selected model test data which were obtained during the execution of the PESCA (Passing Effects in Shallow and Confined Areas) project. The captive model tests present results with the KCS (code C04) as a passing ship and a Neo-Panamax container ship (code C0P) and Aframax tanker (code T0Y) as moored ships. The T0Y is moored along the tank wall (quay configuration) and connected to a measurement frame protruding in the tank (jetty configuration). The C0P is only tested in quay configuration.
