Question 1847 Deck General

The correct answer is C) T-Boats that carry more than 12 passengers on an international voyage. A SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) passenger ship safety certificate is required on all T-Boats (small passenger vessels) that carry more than 12 passengers on an international voyage, as per international maritime regulations. This certificate ensures the ship meets safety standards for operations outside of domestic waterways. The other options are incorrect because: A) T-Boats carrying more than 49 passengers for hire do not necessarily require a SOLAS certificate, as it is dependent on the voyage being international; B) large excursion vessels on lakes, bays, sounds, and river routes may not require a SOLAS certificate if they are not engaged in international voyages; and D) T-Boats carrying more than 150 passengers for hire do not automatically require a SOLAS certificate, which is based on the international nature of the voyage, not the passenger capacity.
