Question 363 Deck General
70% to passWhat is a wet cargo?
The correct answer is C) A canned or bottled liquid such as beer. A "wet cargo" refers to a cargo that is in liquid form, such as beverages, oils, or other liquids carried in containers. These types of cargoes are considered "wet" as opposed to "dry" cargoes that are in solid form. The key distinguishing factor is that wet cargoes are liquids, which includes canned or bottled beverages like beer. The other answer choices do not accurately describe a wet cargo. Option A refers to moisture content, option B refers to cargo susceptibility to moisture damage, and option D refers to liquid cargoes carried in bulk tanks, which is a broader category than just wet cargoes.
