A
one other crew member
B
the Chief Engineer
C
the person about whom the entry concerns
D
No other signature is required.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) one other crew member. According to the U.S. Coast Guard regulations, all entries in the Official Logbook must be signed by the Master (captain) and one other crew member. This is to ensure that the logbook entries are verified and attested to by multiple parties, rather than just the Master alone. The other options are incorrect because the Chief Engineer is not required to sign the logbook (B), the person about whom the entry concerns is not required to sign (C), and the regulations do specify that another crew member's signature is required, in addition to the Master's (D).
