While loaded as shown in the COASTAL DRILLER sample load form #3 (drilling), 200 kips are discharged from 60 feet AF0 and 30 feet to starboard of the centerline. What is the starboard leg reaction?

Correct Answer: Option B — 5,393 kips

Applying standard MODU hydrostatic moment calculations for weight removal relative to the center of flotation yields a resultant starboard leg reaction force of 5,393 kips.
