You are on a supply run to an offshore drilling rig. You are carrying the load show in table ST-0020 below. What is the height above the main deck of the center of gravity of the cargo?

Correct Answer: Option C — 1.97 feet

Analyzing the weight distribution in table ST-0020 requires calculating total vertical moments and dividing by total weight. This standard stability procedure accounts for each cargo piece's stowage height, resulting in a calculated center of gravity height of 1.97 feet.
