70% to pass

The damage to a vessel is over $25,000. Who must notify the nearest Coast Guard Marine Safety or Marine Inspection Office as soon as possible?

A The Master of the vessel
B The person in charge of the vessel
C The operator of the vessel
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) All of the above. The reason this is the correct answer is that according to Coast Guard regulations, any person in charge of a vessel, including the master, person in charge, or operator, must notify the nearest Coast Guard Marine Safety or Marine Inspection Office as soon as possible if the damage to the vessel exceeds $25,000. This requirement applies to all individuals responsible for the vessel, not just a single designated person. The other answer choices are incorrect because they specify only one of the responsible parties, when in fact all three (master, person in charge, operator) have the same notification obligation under the regulations.
