Question 2677 Deck General

The correct answer is D) Both an approved B-V semi-portable fire extinguishing system and a fixed fire extinguishing system. This is the correct answer because the regulations require an uninspected towing vessel of 296 GRT that was contracted for after August 27, 2003 to have both an approved B-V semi-portable fire extinguishing system and a fixed fire extinguishing system, in addition to the required hand portable fire extinguishers. The other options are incorrect because option A only requires a water mist system and a CO2 system, option B only requires a B-V semi-portable system and a water mist system, and option C only requires either a B-V semi-portable system or a fixed system, whereas the regulations mandate both a B-V semi-portable system and a fixed system.
