AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) All of the above. The term "vessel" under both the International and Inland Navigation Rules includes non-self-propelled rafts, hovercrafts, and seaplanes. This is defined in the rules, which state that a "vessel" refers to every description of watercraft, including non-displacement craft, WIG (wing-in-ground) craft, and seaplanes, used or capable of being used as a means of transportation on water. The other options (A, B, and C) are all correct, as they are included in the definition of "vessel" under the Navigation Rules. Therefore, the most comprehensive answer is D) All of the above.
