    I have a work boat with two ballast tanks forward & aftward
    I am using Autohydro software , and trying to find loading condition for these both tanks so I can acheive 0 trim and draft of 1.4 meter
    so I use a combination of two macros :
    one to load delta on the fwd tank and load rat on the aft tank and a second macro to load delta on the aft tank and load rat on the fwd tank and then I alternate between the two macros several times.
    the result were : 0 trim was acheived , draft in that condition was 1.37m ,
    here is the macros :

    macro FD
    trim 0
    fix trim
    solve
    load (FBT_AFT.C) rat
    vary trim
    draft 1.4
    load (FBT_FWD.C) Delta
    /

    macro AD
    draft 1.4
    load (FBT_AFT.C) Delta
    trim 0
    fix trim
    solve
    load (FBT_FWD.C) rat
    vary trim
    /

    execute fd
    execute ad
    execute fd
    execute ad

    can any one help me why I can't get 1.4 m draft
    over
