The 13th ShipWeight User Group meeting will be held on Sunday, May 19th, 2019, in conjunction with the 78th SAWE International Conference on Mass Properties Engineering (May 18-23, 2019 in Norfolk, Virginia, USA). The meeting will be of interest to active ShipWeight users as well as those who are considering acquiring it.
The meeting is also an opportunity to meet other ShipWeight users in an informal setting for exchanging experiences and discussions on best practices.
