Question 200 Deck Safety

70% to pass

Which of the following penalties can be imposed for a violation of the "Vessel Bridge-to-Bridge Radiotelephone Act"?

A civil penalty against the Master or person in charge of a vessel
B civil penalty against the vessel itself
C suspension and/or revocation of an operator's FCC license
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) civil penalty against the Master or person in charge of a vessel. The Vessel Bridge-to-Bridge Radiotelephone Act requires vessels to maintain a continuous listening watch on the designated bridge-to-bridge frequency. Violations of this Act can result in a civil penalty being imposed against the Master or person in charge of the vessel, as they are responsible for ensuring compliance. The other options are incorrect because: B) the penalty is not against the vessel itself, C) suspension/revocation of an FCC license is not a penalty under this Act, and D) not all the options are correct.
