To determine the MT1 (Moment to Trim 1 inch) value, we need to use the Stability Data Reference Book and the given draft measurements of FWD 16'-02" and AFT 20'-08". Based on these draft readings, the MT1 value can be found in the blue pages of the reference book, which provide stability data for typical vessel configurations.
