In the regulations that apply to small passenger vessels an "open boat" is a vessel _______________.

A that is used for charter fishing or tours and is open to the public

B that is docked and open for visitors

C that is not protected from entry of water by means of a complete weathertight deck

D on which gambling and consumption of alcoholic beverages is permitted

AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) that is not protected from entry of water by means of a complete weathertight deck. According to the regulations for small passenger vessels, an "open boat" is defined as a vessel that is not protected from the entry of water by means of a complete weathertight deck. This means the boat does not have a full, sealed deck that would prevent water from entering the vessel. The other answer choices do not accurately capture the regulatory definition of an "open boat" in this context.
