70% to pass

Which tank vessel must carry a signaling lamp?

A A 1,000 GT tanker on a coastwise voyage
B A 200 GT tanker on an international voyage
C A 300 GT tanker on an intercoastal voyage
D All of the above
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) A 200 GT tanker on an international voyage. According to the regulations, all tank vessels engaged on international voyages, regardless of their gross tonnage, are required to carry a signaling lamp. This is specified in the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS), which apply to vessels on international voyages. The other options are incorrect because a 1,000 GT tanker on a coastwise voyage (option A) and a 300 GT tanker on an intercoastal voyage (option C) are not necessarily required to carry a signaling lamp, as the requirement is specifically for international voyages. Option D is incorrect because not all tank vessels, regardless of size or voyage type, are required to carry a signaling lamp.
