Your drafts are: FWD 24'-09", AFT 27'-02". Use the blue pages of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the vessels displacement if you are in fresh water.

A 13,075 tons
B 13,350 tons
C 13,590 tons
D 13,700 tons
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 13,350 tons. To determine the vessel's displacement in fresh water, we can use the blue pages of the Stability Data Reference Book. Given the draft information (FWD 24'-09", AFT 27'-02"), we can locate the corresponding displacement value in the reference book for a vessel in fresh water. The displacement value that matches the provided draft information is 13,350 tons. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not match the displacement value found in the reference book for the given draft information in fresh water.
