AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) FWD 23'-04", AFT 26'-03". To determine the final drafts, we need to use the information provided and the Stability Data Reference Book. The initial drafts are FWD 24'-02" and AFT 24'-04". When 295 tons of cargo are loaded 122 feet aft of amidships, the forward draft decreases, and the aft draft increases. Using the data in the Stability Data Reference Book, the final drafts are calculated as FWD 23'-04" and AFT 26'-03". The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the changes in draft based on the given information and the Stability Data Reference Book.
