A series of experiments were carried out to assess the instantaneous hydrodynamic coefficients and the parametric rolling characteristics of a C11 class container vessel model. The experiments consisted of captive model tests at various heel angles, forced oscillation tests and parametric rolling tests. The results obtained from the parametric rolling tests at head seas are presented. The effects of wavelength and wave height are discussed.
