Yes, a vessel trimmed by the stern has a greater draft aft. Trimming by the stern increases stability of the vessel, but increases the turning radius of that vessel. For a given hull shape (form or geometry) and block coefficient, trimming by the stern can have some profound effects on the behavior of the vessel as it comes about, particularly at speed.

Why is it important to lower the anchor from the bow of the vessel instead of the stern?
Avoids taking on water, capsizing or swamping the vessel

Why rudder is not fitted forward of ship?
Every vessel has a pivot point or center where it turns the best. The stern of a vessel would be hard to control if the rudder was at the bow. When docking, if the rudder was at the bow, you would never be able to get the stern of the vessel to the dock. Once you got the bow to the dock or pier, there would be no way to control the stern to make it swing. Once the bow is at the dock, with the rudder at the stern, the force of water passing across it from the propeller will push the stern into or away from the dock relative to the angle of the rudder.
What is the difference between cruiser stern and transcom stern?
A cruiser stern hangs over the water past the rudder of the vessel and is rounded. A good example of this would be the RMS Titanic, or (for a more modern vessel which is still afloat) the S.S. Empire State 6, the training ship for SUNY Maritime College. A transom stern is not rounded. It's a straight "flat" stern and sits directly over the rudder. This is the design you see on containerships and tankers today. It uses less steel and doesn't effect the efficiency of the vessel when underway.
What to do if you run aground in an outboard boat for freeing your vessel?
Raise the motor, get out and push the boat to deeper water.
What is trim by aft?
"Trim by aft" refers to a condition in which a vessel's bow is elevated and the stern is lowered in the water, causing the ship to have a stern-heavy attitude. This situation can affect the vessel's stability, maneuverability, and overall performance. It may occur due to loading practices, changes in weight distribution, or water accumulation. Proper trim is essential for safe and efficient navigation.
How rudder turns the ship?
the rudder is mainly behind the propeller and helps turn the ship
Where is the bow of the vessel on the boat?
The bow of a vessel refers to the front part of the boat. It is the section that faces forward when the boat is moving and is typically pointed or tapered to help cut through the water. In contrast, the back of the boat is called the stern.
Where can heat be transferred to other than the water?
Which water are you speaking of? The water in a vessel, I presume? heat can go into the water, the vessel/container, the air around the vessel, and the structure holding the vessel, and the structures in the vicinity
What is vessel?
Vessel,s are that is water vessels
