i am sure it is to be down at the stern slightley
because without stability the ship is not sea worthy and most likely to capcize. stability is the ability of a ship to keep the ship always in the upright position.

Capsizing. However, the ship can regain its stability.
use a rudder
It will capsize and most likely sink
A ship's center of stability is known as the metacentre. If you add weight to the side of a ship the moment created will cause it will roll. There has to be a restoring moment otherwise the ship will capsize. This restoring moment is due to the change in the submerged volume, hence change in center of buoyancy. This acts at the 'center of stability' where BM(distance from center of buoyancy to metacenter) = Inertia/DisplacementPicture a model of a yacht with a large weight attached to the mast. Now move the weight onto the keel. Which one do you think has the best stability?

An anchor holds a ship in place so it gives stability,unmovable.
ship owners always want to keep minimum free-board so that they can load the ship to the maximum,but this is in turn dangerous to the stability and different characters of ships safety

the bachelor of sience in marine transportation is a program incorporating...it deals with the art and sience of ship operations navigating and ship stability
