Abstract
Instantaneous wave profiles associated with green water loading events are investigated for a stationary vessel heading into long-crested random waves . Comparisons are made with the profile predicted by a transient wave packe t that has been specially formulated to produce the most probable time hist ory of extreme linear relative motion at the bow.
