Question 304 Deck General

The correct answer is B) 11. According to the regulations set by the United States Coast Guard, a cargo vessel is not required to have a hospital space on board if the total number of crew members does not exceed 11. If the crew size exceeds 11, then the vessel must have a designated hospital space. The other options are incorrect because: A) 6 is too low, as the regulations allow up to 11 crew members without a hospital space. C) 12 and D) 16 are too high, as they exceed the 11-person limit for not requiring a hospital space.
