The DEEP DRILLER is loaded as shown in the Sample Load Form #1 (Transit). How much additional deck load can be placed aboard without exceeding the deck load limit?

Correct Answer: Option D — 435.6 long tons

Sample Load Form calculations require comparing current deadweight against maximum allowable deck loading limits. For the DEEP DRILLER under transit conditions, mathematical reconciliation shows capacity remains for exactly 435.6 long tons of additional deck cargo.
