AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) Both A and C. This is because: 1) Answer A is correct - Entries relating to pre-voyage, pre-departure and daily tests are required to be logged in the vessel's logbook as per Coast Guard regulations. 2) Answer C is also correct - All distress, urgent and safety communications that affect the station's own ship must be logged in the vessel's logbook. The other options are incorrect. Routine daily MF-HF and INMARSAT-C transmissions do have to be logged, so answer D is incorrect. Combining answers A and C provides the most complete and accurate statement, making B the correct choice.
