A majority of the crew requests a survey from the American Consul to determine a vessel's seaworthiness. The vessel is found unfit to continue her intended voyage. The Consul allows the vessel to sail to another port where deficiencies can be corrected. The crew must _______________.

A be discharged by the American Consul with additional one month's wages until repairs are made

B be discharged and given first class passage back to the original port of signing on in lieu of one month's wages

C be furnished employment on another vessel returning to the United States which is satisfactory to that crew

D comply with the judgment

AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) comply with the judgment. The reasoning is that when the American Consul has determined the vessel is unfit to continue its intended voyage, the crew must comply with the Consul's judgment. The Consul has the authority to make this determination, and the crew is obligated to follow the Consul's decision, even if it means sailing the vessel to another port for repairs. The other answer choices, while possible in other scenarios, do not align with the requirement to comply with the Consul's judgment in this specific case.
