Life floats and buoyant apparatus may be stowed in tiers, one above the other, to a height of not more than _______________. (small passenger vessel regulations)

A 3 feet
B 4 feet
C 5 feet
D 6 feet
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) 4 feet. The small passenger vessel regulations specify that life floats and buoyant apparatus may be stowed in tiers, one above the other, to a height of not more than 4 feet. This regulation ensures that the lifesaving equipment is accessible and can be easily deployed in an emergency situation. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not align with the specific 4-foot height requirement outlined in the regulations.
