A 21,497 kips
B 21,297 kips
C 17,700 kips
D 14,400 kips
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 21,497 kips. The maximum total weight when preloading the COASTAL DRILLER must not exceed 21,497 kips. This is based on the regulations and design specifications for the COASTAL DRILLER, which have established this weight limit to ensure the stability and safe operation of the vessel. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the established weight limit for this specific vessel. Option B (21,297 kips) is slightly lower, while options C (17,700 kips) and D (14,400 kips) are significantly lower than the correct maximum weight.
