Question 2323Deck Safety70% to pass
Your vessel's drafts are FWD 19'-03", AFT 21'-07". Use the information in Section 1, the blue pages, of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the final drafts if 142 tons of cargo are loaded 86 feet forward of amidships.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) FWD 19'-11", AFT 21'-04".
To determine the final drafts, we need to use the information provided about the initial drafts and the cargo loading. When 142 tons of cargo are loaded 86 feet forward of amidships, it will cause the vessel's trim to change, resulting in new drafts. By referring to the Stability Data Reference Book, Section 1 (the blue pages), we can calculate the new drafts based on the given information.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the change in drafts caused by the cargo loading. Option A and B have drafts that are too shallow, while Option C has drafts that are too deep.
