A FWD 24'-01", AFT 26'-02"
B FWD 23'-03", AFT 27'-00"
C FWD 23'-07", AFT 26'-07"
D FWD 24'-06", AFT 25'-10"
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) FWD 23'-03", AFT 27'-00". To determine the drafts, you need to use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book, which provide guidance on how to calculate drafts based on the given load condition. The key information needed is the displacement and longitudinal center of gravity (LCG) from the load condition table ST-0006. With this data, you can refer to the white pages to find the corresponding drafts. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the drafts calculated using the information provided in the load condition table and the guidance in The Stability Data Reference Book.
