Your vessel's drafts are FWD 20'-08", AFT 23'-00". Use the information in Section 1, the blue pages, of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the final drafts if 195 tons of cargo are discharged 76 feet aft of amidships.

Question

Accepted Answer

Option C: FWD 20'-11", AFT 22'-00". Cargo discharge aft alters both mean draft and trim according to stability data reference book curves, yielding final drafts of FWD 20'-11" and AFT 22'-00".
