Question 2754 Deck General

The correct answer is B) 60 months. The period of validity for a Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate is 60 months, as per the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) regulations. This certificate is issued to cargo ships to verify that the vessel's safety equipment, such as lifeboats, fire-fighting systems, and navigation lights, meet the required international standards. The 60-month validity period ensures that the ship's safety equipment is regularly inspected and maintained to ensure the safety of the crew and cargo. The other options are incorrect because 72 months (A) is too long, 48 months (C) is too short, and 42 months (D) is not the standard validity period for this certificate.
