✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which choice is linked to international load line conventions, not draft limits alone. • Eliminate any term that mainly refers to hull geometry (bottom shape) or tonnage calculation rather than freeboard and safety. • Make sure the term you select is the one used worldwide as the symbol for the summer load line disk with a horizontal line through it.
