Question 4366Deck General70% to pass
The draft of the DEEP DRILLER in the lightweight condition is _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 16.19 feet.
The draft of a vessel in the lightweight condition is determined by the vessel's overall weight, excluding cargo, fuel, water, stores, passengers, and crew. The lightweight draft of the DEEP DRILLER is specifically given as 16.19 feet, which makes option A the correct answer.
The other options are incorrect because they do not represent the actual lightweight draft of the DEEP DRILLER as specified in the question. Option B (17.71 feet), C (17.96 feet), and D (18.35 feet) are likely different drafts for the vessel, but they do not match the lightweight condition described in the question.
