Question 2732Deck General70% to pass
Every fishing vessel required to have a general alarm system must test it _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Both B and C.
According to the regulations, every fishing vessel required to have a general alarm system must test it once every week that the vessel is operated (option B) and once every day that the vessel is operated (option C). This is a requirement outlined in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) for commercial fishing vessels, specifically 46 CFR 28.240.
The other options are incorrect because option A would only apply before the initial operation of the vessel, not for ongoing testing, and option C alone would not fully cover the required testing frequency as per the regulations.
