This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation of green water loads on a wave-piercing tumblehome ship. A water tank experiment was carried out in head regular waves by using a self-propelling segmented ship model. Wave probes and pressure sensors were arranged on the bow deck along the longitudinal and transverse directions. The height of water and the impact pressure on the deck were measured and their distributions in different wave conditions studied. The motion of the water flowing on the deck was recorded by a high-speed video system. Based on the experimental results, it was found that the green water is more serious with the increase of incident wave height and ship speed. The bow shape has little effects on the occurrence of green water, but it influences the green water loads to some extent. The distribution of green water pressure is different from that of green water height due to the strong nonlinearity of green water pressure.
