The DEEP DRILLER, at a draft of 60 feet, has a KGT of 57.11 feet and TCG of 0.5 foot to port. What is the list angle?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 5° port.
To calculate the list angle, we can use the formula: List Angle = arctan(TCG/KGT). Given the values of TCG = 0.5 foot to port and KGT = 57.11 feet, the list angle is arctan(0.5/57.11) = 0.5° port, which rounds to 5° port.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the list angle based on the provided information. Option A (2° port) and B (3° port) are too low, while option C (4° port) is too high compared to the calculated 5° port list angle.
