I think there are different sets of new dynamics. I got it from the dutchshipsim website (they removed it, guess i hurt their feelings with posting the pics), looking at your screenshot the Latitude has more draft than mine. I assumed both sets were equal.
I released a number of different beta versions via Creators Forum while we were testing the different loadings. No-one else should be distributing copies, though.
But the handling characteristics are the same as she was in full draft?
Well, no. Latitude has pumped 25,000 tonnes of oil off. Of course, she's much lighter and will handle differently.
One more question: if someone on MP has a Latitude with reduced draft, will all players be able to see that or only those who has installed the same update ?
Anyone who doesn't have the update will see your version displayed as if it was the original version. But you will be able to access shallow waters without grounding. They will simply see a "normal" Latitude accessing shallow waters. it won't ground on their PC as all the calculations are done on your PC.
On a laggy server, your Latitide may appear to jump a little more than usual, but your view of it will be OK. (when in MP, the server is told by your PC where your vessel is located, speed, direction etc). The server tells the other users. Their PCs then calculate where your vessel is heading until they get an update from the server. If they have calculated wrongly, your vessel jumps to the real position. And on it goes).
