70% to pass

The SS AMERICAN MARINER will sail with the load shown in table ST-0094 below. Use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book to determine the drafts.

A FWD 26'-03", AFT 27'-08"
B FWD 26'-11", AFT 25'-06"
C FWD 25'-06", AFT 26'-11"
D FWD 26'-08", AFT 25'-07"
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) FWD 25'-06", AFT 26'-11". To determine the drafts, you need to use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book and the information provided in the table ST-0094. The white pages contain the drafts for different load conditions, and by matching the data in the table to the information in the white pages, you can find the correct drafts. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the drafts found in the white pages for the given load condition. Option A is too deep, option B is the wrong direction (the aft draft is shallower than the forward draft), and option D is also incorrect.
