Question 2689 Deck Safety

The correct answer is B) KG 25.5 feet. To determine the final KG (vertical center of gravity) of the cargo after loading, we need to use the information provided and the Stability Data Reference Book. Based on the data given, the current cargo on board has a KG of 26.4 feet. By using the white pages of the Stability Data Reference Book, which provide information on the KG of various cargo types, we can calculate the final KG after adding the new cargo listed in table ST-0043. The calculation shows that the final KG of all the cargo will be 25.5 feet, making option B the correct answer. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the final KG based on the provided information and the Stability Data Reference Book.
