Question 2675 Deck General
70% to passWhich type of fixed fire protection system is approved for use on board uninspected vessels?
The correct answer is C) Water mist. The US Coast Guard regulations for fire protection systems on uninspected vessels, such as recreational boats, allow the use of water mist fire suppression systems. Water mist systems are an approved fixed fire protection system for these types of vessels, as they are effective at extinguishing fires while minimizing the risks associated with other agents like chemical foam, dry chemical, or steam. The other options (A, B, D) are not approved for use on uninspected vessels, as they either pose safety concerns or are more suitable for inspected commercial vessels with different fire protection requirements.
