Question 2275Deck Safety70% to pass
Your vessel's drafts are: FWD 13'-11", AFT 11'-09". How much more cargo can be loaded to have the vessel down to the freeboard draft? (Use the information in Section 1, the blue pages, of the Stability Data Reference Book)
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 9069 tons.
To determine the amount of additional cargo that can be loaded, we need to calculate the difference between the freeboard draft and the current draft. The freeboard draft is the maximum allowable draft for the vessel to maintain the required freeboard. By using the information provided in the Stability Data Reference Book, we can find the freeboard draft and then calculate the additional cargo capacity.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the additional cargo capacity based on the given draft information and the freeboard draft requirements.
