Question 2971 Deck General

70% to pass

You are in port A in the United States, and your Certificate of Inspection has expired. You wish to go to port B in the United States for repairs and to complete the inspection. If the Officer-in-Charge Marine Inspection deems it safe, he may issue a _______________.

A Permit to Proceed
B Temporary Certificate of Inspection
C Certificate of Seaworthiness
D Limited Certificate of Inspection
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) Limited Certificate of Inspection. If a vessel's Certificate of Inspection has expired and the Officer-in-Charge Marine Inspection deems it safe to proceed to another port for repairs and re-inspection, they may issue a Limited Certificate of Inspection. This temporary document allows the vessel to make the voyage to the designated port for the necessary repairs and inspection to renew the full Certificate of Inspection. The other options are incorrect because: A) Permit to Proceed is not the correct term for this situation. B) Temporary Certificate of Inspection is not the same as a Limited Certificate of Inspection. C) Certificate of Seaworthiness is a different document not applicable in this case.
