70% to pass

Each vessel shall be dry-docked or hauled out at intervals not to exceed 2 years if operated in salt water for a total of more than _______________. (small passenger vessel regulations)

A 3 months in any 12 month period since it was last hauled out
B 6 months in the 3 year period since it was last hauled out
C 12 months in the 5 year period since it was last hauled out
D whenever ownership or management changes
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 3 months in any 12 month period since it was last hauled out. This is the correct answer based on the small passenger vessel regulations, which require that each vessel be dry-docked or hauled out at intervals not to exceed 2 years if operated in salt water for a total of more than 3 months in any 12 month period since it was last hauled out. The other options are incorrect because they do not align with the 3 month in 12 month period requirement specified in the regulation.
