Question 1892Deck General70% to pass

Small passenger vessels not limited to service during daylight hours must carry _______________.

AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) at least one floating water light. Small passenger vessels not limited to service during daylight hours must carry at least one floating water light, as per the Coast Guard regulations. This requirement ensures that the vessel has a source of illumination that can be used in the event of an emergency, such as a person overboard or a loss of power, to aid in visibility and rescue efforts. The other options are incorrect because: A) a radar is not a required piece of equipment for small passenger vessels, B) a collision bulkhead is a structural feature, not a required piece of equipment, and D) a white 20 point anchor light is not a requirement for small passenger vessels not limited to daylight service.
