70% to pass

What will NOT be found on the Certificate of Inspection of an oceangoing tankship?

A Manning requirements
B Waters upon which the vessel may be operated
C Minimum freeboard permitted
D Grade(s) of cargoes that the vessel may carry
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) Minimum freeboard permitted. The Certificate of Inspection (COI) for an oceangoing tankship does not include information about the minimum freeboard permitted. The COI typically includes details such as the vessel's manning requirements (A), the waters upon which the vessel may be operated (B), and the grade(s) of cargoes that the vessel may carry (D). However, the minimum freeboard, which is the distance between the waterline and the main deck, is not a requirement listed on the COI. This information is usually found in the vessel's stability booklet or other technical documentation, but not on the COI itself.
