A 1000 meters
B 1250 meters
C 1500 meters
D 2000 meters
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 1000 meters. The lights shown in illustration D068RR represent a vessel restricted in its ability to maneuver. According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS), a vessel restricted in its ability to maneuver should display these lights to indicate that other vessels should not pass within 1000 meters. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not match the COLREGS requirement for this type of vessel.
