Question 1887 Deck General
70% to passWith certain exceptions a suitable rescue boat is required _______________.
The correct answer is B) on most "T-Boats" more than 65 feet in length. According to the US Coast Guard regulations, a suitable rescue boat is required on most "T-Boats" (tank vessels) that are more than 65 feet in length. This requirement is specified in 46 CFR 199.201, which states that a rescue boat is required on all passenger ships and cargo ships more than 500 gross tons, including most "T-Boats" over 65 feet in length. The other options are incorrect because a rescue boat is not required on all "T-Boats" regardless of length (A), nor is it only required on "K-Boats" (C), and none of the above (D) is not the correct answer.
