70% to pass

As Master of an inspected small passenger vessel, you have a question regarding a proposed modification to a watertight bulkhead. In which subchapter of title 46 of the Code of Federal Regulations would you find the answer?

A Subchapter B
B Subchapter D
C Subchapter F
D Subchapter T
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) Subchapter T. Subchapter T of Title 46 of the Code of Federal Regulations covers "Small Passenger Vessels (Under 100 Gross Tons)," which is the relevant subchapter for inspected small passenger vessels. This subchapter would contain the specific regulations and requirements regarding the construction, design, and modification of watertight bulkheads for small passenger vessels. The other answer choices are incorrect because they cover different types of vessels or general maritime regulations that would not be the appropriate source for information on small passenger vessel requirements. Subchapter B covers "Merchant Marine Officers and Seamen," Subchapter D covers "Tank Vessels," and Subchapter F covers "Marine Engineering."
