Your drafts are: FWD 20'-08", AFT 23'-03". Use the blue pages of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the MT1.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 1050 foot-tons.
To determine the MT1 (Moment to Trim 1 inch) using the blue pages of the Stability Data Reference Book, you need to look up the vessel's drafts (forward and aft) and find the corresponding MT1 value. With a forward draft of 20'-08" and an aft draft of 23'-03", the MT1 value is 1050 foot-tons.
The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not match the MT1 value for the given drafts as per the Stability Data Reference Book.
