The resultant force will be #6000sqrt3N#.

Explanation:

Suppose, #vec (AB)# and# vec (AC )#are the two boats and# vec( AD)# is the direction of ship.
We know the formula of resultant is

#AD=sqrt(AC^2+CD^2+2×AB×CD×cos 60#

#AD=sqrt(2(6000)^2+2×6000×6000×(1/2)#

#AD=sqrt(3×6000^2)#

#AD=6000sqrt3# final answer
