Question 1636 Deck General

70% to pass

Small passenger vessels in cold water ocean routes, that do not meet the standards for collision bulkheads or subdivision in subchapter S, must carry _______________. (small passenger vessel regulations)

A 100% inflatable buoyant apparatus
B at least two EPIRBs
C at least one hand fire pump
D All of the above.
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) 100% inflatable buoyant apparatus. Small passenger vessels operating in cold water ocean routes that do not meet the subdivision and stability standards of Subchapter S are required to carry 100% inflatable buoyant apparatus instead of standard lifeboats or life rafts. This requirement is specified in the small passenger vessel regulations to provide adequate safety equipment for passengers in the event of an emergency, as these vessels lack the necessary collision bulkhead and subdivision standards. The other options are incorrect because they do not specifically address the requirement for 100% inflatable buoyant apparatus on these types of small passenger vessels operating in cold water ocean routes.
