When the COASTAL DRILLER is level at a draft of 10.5 feet, what is the value of the LCG?

A 00.0 feet
B 111.35 feet
C 119.44 feet
D 120.59 feet
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) 119.44 feet. When a vessel is at a level draft, the Longitudinal Center of Gravity (LCG) can be determined from the vessel's stability booklet or stability information. The LCG represents the longitudinal position of the vessel's center of gravity, which is a critical factor in determining a vessel's stability and trim. The other options are incorrect because: A) 00.0 feet is unlikely to be the correct LCG value for a vessel of this size. B) 111.35 feet and D) 120.59 feet are not the values provided in the information given.
