A FWD 17'-11", AFT 22'-07"
B FWD 17'-09", AFT 23'-01"
C FWD 17'-02", AFT 23'-04"
D FWD 17'-05", AFT 23'-04"
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) FWD 17'-11", AFT 22'-07". To determine the drafts, you need to use the stability data provided in the reference book. The white pages provide the drafts for a given loading condition. By comparing the vessel's load to the information in the table, you can find the corresponding drafts. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the drafts provided in the stability data for the given loading condition.
