70% to passYour vessel has 3 lifeboats on each side. The aftermost boat on the starboard side is designated as boat number _______________.
A
6
B
3 STARBOARD
C
5
D
3
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 5. According to standard Coast Guard regulations, lifeboats are numbered in order from forward to aft, with the aftermost boat on the starboard side designated as the odd-numbered boat. Since the question states there are 3 lifeboats on each side, the aftermost boat on the starboard side would be boat number 5. The other answer choices are incorrect because A) 6 is not the correct boat number, B) 3 Starboard is not a valid designation, and D) 3 does not match the description of the aftermost starboard-side boat.
