70% to pass

On uninspected vessels which statement is TRUE concerning work vests?

A They need not be of an approved type.
B They may be worn during drills.
C They must be stowed separately from approved life preservers.
D They may be substituted for up to 10% of the required lifesaving gear aboard.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) They must be stowed separately from approved life preservers. This is the correct answer because on uninspected vessels, work vests are not considered approved lifesaving equipment. They must be stowed separately from the required life preservers, which are the approved lifesaving gear for these vessels. The other answer choices are incorrect because work vests cannot substitute for approved life preservers, may not be worn during drills, and do require approval for use on uninspected vessels.
