The distance of the water level, even in ideal position, changes that only 458 mm distance remain. So the critical
distance is under-run already.

In this case the water level rise so high, that the distance constitutes only 325 mm.
Even when the water lock is mounted in the ideal spot, at an extremely tilted position of 45 degrees there is still the
risk that water can get straight into the discharge stack area through strong rocking motions („sloshing“). This shows
that the distance of 600 mm represents a minimum size at which, even when installed ideally, the water can slosh
into the exhaust elbow when the ship is very tilted or rocks very hard.
