(3) When the center of gravity is 1.5 m in front of the midship of the boat, the boat will turn over. When the initial angle is 60 ∘, the setback occurs after the boat entering the water. (2) When the initial inclination angle is 45 ∘, the setback may occur after the boat entering the wave. There is no obvious law between forward distance and waves. The horizontal distance will be smaller, when the initial inclination angle increases. The following conclusions are finally obtained: (1) When the initial inclination angle is 30 ∘, the horizontal distance between the point of water entry of the boat and the lower end of the slide is about 7.2 m. The model is used for numerical investigation about the boat launching from skid under different conditions and applied to ship life-saving simulation training system. The method of interpolation is used for calculating the half width and added mass of cross-sections at water entry. According to the theory of momentum and strip theory, hydrodynamic forces of the boat at water entry are calculated under the effect of waves. The whole launching is divided into four phases, namely: sliding down, rotation, free fall and water entry. In order to improve the simulation accuracy for free-fall lifeboat in ship life-saving training system, this paper analyzes and models the motion of boat’s launching from the skid.
