AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) the shoring should be frequently inspected for looseness. After an emergency shoring installation, the shoring must be regularly inspected to ensure it remains tight and secure. This is required by Coast Guard regulations to maintain the structural integrity of the vessel and prevent any further damage. The shoring cannot simply be nailed in place (option C) or considered a completed repair with no further action needed (option B). Additionally, straightening damaged plating by heating (option D) is a separate repair procedure not directly related to the shoring installation.
