Question 2314Deck Safety70% to pass
Your vessel's drafts are FWD 20'-08", AFT 23'-00". Use the information in Section 1, the blue pages, of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the final drafts if 95 tons of cargo are loaded 76 feet forward of amidships.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) FWD 21'-01", AFT 22'-11".
To determine the final drafts, we need to use the principles of ship stability and the information provided in the Stability Data Reference Book. When 95 tons of cargo are loaded 76 feet forward of amidships, it will cause the vessel to trim by the bow, resulting in a change in the forward and aft drafts.
The correct answer, C, accounts for this change in trim and provides the updated drafts after the cargo loading. The other options are incorrect because they either do not reflect the change in trim or provide inaccurate drafts.
