Question 2538 Deck General

70% to pass

The Certificate of Freeboard is the _______________.

A Load Line Certificate
B Forecastle Card
C Admeasurer's Certificate
D Certificate of Inspection
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) Load Line Certificate. The Certificate of Freeboard is the Load Line Certificate, which is issued by the U.S. Coast Guard and specifies the minimum freeboard required for a vessel to operate safely. This certificate ensures the vessel is not overloaded, which could compromise its stability and seaworthiness. The other options are incorrect because they represent different certificates or documents. The Forecastle Card and Admeasurer's Certificate are not related to the Certificate of Freeboard, and the Certificate of Inspection is a separate document that outlines a vessel's compliance with safety regulations.
