Question 1857 Deck Safety

The correct answer is B) 3. The symbol for amidships in the illustration D041DG is the number 3. This is in accordance with the standard symbols used in navigation charts and publications, where the number 3 is the internationally recognized symbol to denote the amidships position on a vessel. The other options, A) 2, C) 4, and D) 5, do not represent the amidships symbol in this context. These symbols may have other meanings related to navigation, but they are not the specific symbol used to indicate the amidships position on a vessel.
