Which outcome predictably occurs when exceeding the Plimsoll Line on 19th-century merchant ships?

💡 Explanation

Keel stress increases dangerously because exceeding the Plimsoll Line lowers the relative buoyancy, causing a bending moment along the hull section, therefore hull failure becomes more likely, rather than rudder issues or problems elsewhere with ships.
