70% to passYou are reading the draft marks as shown in illustration D032DG. The water level is about 4 inches below the bottom of the number 11. What is the draft?
A
10'-08"
B
10'-10"
C
11'-04"
D
11'-08"
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) 10'-08". The water level is about 4 inches below the bottom of the number 11, which indicates a draft of 10 feet and 8 inches. This is based on the standard practice of reading draft marks on a vessel, where the water level corresponds to the draft. The other options are incorrect because 10'-10" is too high, 11'-04" is too high, and 11'-08" is too high for the given water level in the illustration.
