Your vessel's drafts are FWD 20'-09", AFT 21'-01". Use the information in Section 1, the
blue pages, of the Stability Data Reference Book to determine the final drafts if: (1) 320 tons
are loaded 47 feet forward of amidships; (2) 82 tons are discharged 110 feet forward of
amidships; and (3) 50 tons of fuel are pumped 60 feet forward.
