The SS AMERICAN MARINER is loaded with the cargo shown in table ST-0001 below. Use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book to determine the amount of liquid loading required in the double bottom tanks to meet a one compartment standard.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) 263 tons.
To meet the one compartment standard, the amount of liquid loading required in the double bottom tanks is 263 tons. This is determined by using the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book to calculate the amount of liquid needed to offset the loss of buoyancy from the damage to one compartment, as per the one compartment standard.
The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the amount of liquid loading required to meet the one compartment standard based on the given cargo information and the stability data reference book.
