Question 2899 Deck General

70% to pass

The number of certificated lifeboatmen required for a vessel is found on the _______________.

A Register or Enrollment
B lifeboats
C Muster List ("Station Bill")
D Certificate of Inspection
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) Certificate of Inspection. The Certificate of Inspection (COI) issued by the U.S. Coast Guard for a vessel outlines the specific safety and operational requirements for that vessel, including the number of certificated lifeboatmen required. This information is determined by the vessel's size, passenger capacity, and other factors, and is documented on the COI. The other options are incorrect because: A) The register or enrollment does not specify the number of lifeboatmen, B) The lifeboats themselves do not dictate the required number of lifeboatmen, and C) The muster list or station bill outlines crew assignments, but does not specify the number of certificated lifeboatmen required.
