To verify whether the channel and the turning water area of the newly built Baima berth in Fuzhou Port can meet the requirements for the safe navigation of 50，000-ton bulk carriers，this paper uses ship parameters and hydrometeorological factors to design the navigable channel of the ship，and studies the ship's maneuvering characteristics with the Nomoto equation and obtains the turning water area required for ship docking and berthing operation.To verify whether the design meets the requirements，a ship handling simulator is used to simulate the voyage.The results show that the theoretically designed channel meets the requirements for the navigation of 50，000-ton bulk carriers，and there are difficulties in maneuvering under the working conditions of the torrent，and the deviation of the rotation diameter beyond the design occurs when turning away from the berth under heavy-duty.Setting up various navigation conditions to simulate the real navigation of the ship can not only obtain the experience of sailing in the channel，but also verify the rationality of the design of the channel and the turning water area.
