A
yellow/red/yellow
B
international orange
C
red/yellow/red
D
hi-visibility yellow
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) red/yellow/red. The reason this is the correct answer is that the regulations for the US Coast Guard require the last 1.0 meter (3.3 feet) of piping before the vessel vapor connection to be painted in a red/yellow/red color scheme. This color scheme helps to clearly identify the hazardous nature of the vapor connection and warn personnel to take appropriate safety precautions. The other answer choices, while potentially used for other maritime safety markings, do not specifically meet the regulatory requirement for the vapor connection piping.
