AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) the Coast Guard. According to the regulations governing the reporting of accidents involving "T-Boats" (small passenger vessels), any accident resulting in loss of life, serious injury, or more than $25,000 in property damage must be reported to the U.S. Coast Guard. This is a requirement outlined in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) for the commercial operation of these vessels. The other options are incorrect because the owner or their insurance agent, and the Maritime Administration (MARAD), are not the designated authorities for receiving such accident reports.
