What is NOT a requirement of the re-inspection for a tank barge with a certificate of inspection valid for two years?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) The re-inspection will be made between the fourteenth and sixteenth months. The reasoning is that according to the regulations for tank barges with a certificate of inspection valid for two years, the re-inspection is required to be conducted between the fourteenth and eighteenth months of the two-year period, not specifically between the fourteenth and sixteenth months. The other options are incorrect because A) examining the vessel machinery and equipment is a requirement, B) examining the accessible parts of the hull is a requirement, and C) the scope of the re-inspection is the same as the full inspection for certification.
