Question 1750Navigation General

The correct answer is D) All of the above. This is the correct answer because the regulations require the owner or Master to take the following actions if any of the towing vessel's required navigational safety equipment fails during a voyage: 1. Enter the failure in the log or other on board record to document the issue. 2. Repair the failed equipment at the earliest practicable time, meaning as soon as reasonably possible. 3. Consider the state of the failed equipment in deciding whether it is safe for the vessel to proceed with the voyage. The other options are incorrect because they do not encompass all the required actions. Options A, B, and C individually describe part of the required response, but the regulations mandate that the owner or Master must take all three actions when required navigational safety equipment fails.
