Question 461 Deck General

70% to pass

Which item is NOT required to be marked with the vessel's name?

A Lifeboat oar
B Immersion suit
C Life preserver
D Hand-portable fire extinguisher
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) Hand-portable fire extinguisher. According to US Coast Guard regulations, the vessel's name is required to be marked on lifeboat oars, immersion suits, and life preservers, but it is not required to be marked on hand-portable fire extinguishers. Fire extinguishers are not personal safety equipment like the other items listed, so the vessel's name marking requirement does not apply to them. The other answer choices (A, B, and C) are incorrect because the vessel's name is required to be marked on those items per Coast Guard regulations.
