Question 299 Deck General

The correct answer is B) Sufficient facilities for the crew to wash their clothes. According to U.S. regulations, cargo vessels must provide sufficient facilities for the crew to wash their clothes. This requirement is outlined in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) under Title 46, which covers merchant marine safety standards. The regulations specify that cargo vessels must have adequate laundry facilities or arrangements to allow crew members to wash and dry their personal clothing. The other options are not correct. Separate toilet facilities for engineers are not required unless the number of engineers exceeds six. A wash basin in each room is not a mandatory requirement for cargo vessels under U.S. regulations.
