Your drafts are: FWD 23'-03", AFT 27'-01". Use the blue pages of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the vessels displacement if you are in salt water.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 13,150 tons.
To determine the vessel's displacement in salt water, we can use the blue pages of the Stability Data Reference Book. Given the draft measurements of 23'-03" forward and 27'-01" aft, we can find the corresponding displacement value in the reference book. Based on the provided draft figures, the displacement of the vessel in salt water is 13,150 tons.
The other options are incorrect because they do not match the displacement value found in the reference book for the given draft measurements.
