Evaluation of Motions of Marine Craft in Irregular Seas 



Mr. M. Fancev's kind words are appreciated and we would like to take this 

 opportunity to thank him and Mr. J. Dalzell for their pioneering work which has 

 been useful and inspiring io the authors. 



We do share the same opinion with Mr. G. Goodrich about the usefulness of 

 this method to classify existing data and utilized their statistical properties to 

 examine the long-time exposure to rough seas by relatively short- time computer 

 runs. 



We would like to thank all discussers for their stimulating contributions.
