AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) 13,620 tons. To determine the vessel's displacement in salt water, you can use the blue pages of the Stability Data Reference Book. Given the vessel's draft measurements (FWD 24'-09" and AFT 27'-02"), you can locate the corresponding displacement value in the reference book, which is 13,620 tons. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the displacement value provided in the reference book for the given draft measurements.
