Question 1673 Deck General

The correct answer is B) once every year. The small passenger vessel regulations require that small passenger vessels of 60 feet in length carrying more than twelve persons on an international voyage must be inspected by the Coast Guard once every year. This is a regulatory requirement to ensure the safety and seaworthiness of these vessels that are transporting a significant number of passengers on international voyages. The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the regulatory inspection frequency for this type of vessel. Option A is too frequent, C is not frequent enough, and D is also not the correct inspection interval specified in the regulations.
