Question 3126 Deck General

The correct answer is D) Official Logbook. The U.S. Coast Guard requires vessels to maintain an official logbook, which is a legal document that records important information about the vessel's operations, crew, and activities. This logbook is supplied by the Coast Guard and must be used to document the vessel's activities as required by Coast Guard regulations. The other options are incorrect because they are not provided by the Coast Guard. A cargo gear register is maintained by the vessel operator, a bell book is used to record the ringing of the ship's bell, and a rough logbook is a personal log kept by the captain or crew, but these are not official Coast Guard-supplied documents.
