The SS AMERICAN MARINER has the liquid load shown in table ST-0137 below. Use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book to determine the LCG-FP of the liquid load.

Correct Answer: Option C — 294.4 ft

Longitudinal center of gravity (LCG) for liquid loads in the SS AMERICAN MARINER is computed by summing longitudinal moments (weight multiplied by individual tank LCG from the white pages of the Stability Data Reference Book) and dividing by total liquid weight, resulting in 294.4 feet.
