The SS AMERICAN MARINER has the liquid load shown in table ST-0155 below. Use the white pages of The Stability Data Reference Book to determine the LCG-FP of the liquid load.

Correct Answer: Option B — 236.7 ft

Longitudinal moment calculations rely on looking up tank sounding heights against hydrostatic capacity curves. Utilizing table ST-0155 in the stability manual extracts a liquid load longitudinal center of gravity of 236.7 feet.
