A quick way to check if a ship is empty or not is to look at the waterline to see how much the ship draws. Many large ships have "marks" on the hull to indicate the depth to the keel. The higher a vessel rides in the water, the less cargo she must have on board. And looking at how much of the "lower hull" may be exposed is a key to figuring that out. Some vessels will allow the observer to see the top of the screw and/or the rudder when they ride high.

How would you weight a plane without scales?
Answers:* Disassemble the plane and load it onto a cargo ship. The ship will sink lower into the water with the plane on board than it was before. The change in freeboard will translate into a tonnage loaded. * Compact the plane into as tight a cube as possible. The volume of the cube multiplied by the density of the main component of the plane (e.g. aluminum) will provide a good estimate of the weight. * Toe the plane down a long runway at increasing speed. At the wind speed that the plane lifts off the back calculation of the engineering for the wings will tell you the "lift" provided. This will equal the weight
