Your vessel's drafts are FWD 19'-02", AFT 23'-10". Use the information in Section 1, the blue pages, of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the final drafts if 98 tons of fuel is loaded 116 feet forward of amidships.

Correct Answer: Option D — FWD 19'-09", AFT 23'-06"

Loading fuel forward increases the forward draft while decreasing the aft draft based on longitudinal center of gravity calculations, yielding final drafts of FWD 19'-09" and AFT 23'-06".
