A . The slowing is only temporary and the vessel will probably suddenly capsize or plunge from loss of stability due to change in the waterplane area B . The vessel can probably be saved if further flooding can be stopped C . The vessel will continue to slowly list and/or trim due to the free surface effect and free communication effect D .
