A system and method for determining and displaying the suitability of water conditions in a zone for the launch or recovery of a smaller craft from or to a host ship is disclosed. The system and method detect one or more external environment parameters such as the height, direction and period of the swell (26), and one or more parameters relating to the ship operating conditions such as the heading, speed, pitch and roll angles (28), and processes these (22) to determine the suitability of the conditions for launch or recovery (24). |
