Question 2740Deck General70% to pass
Your vessel is 79 feet long with 20 people aboard. The coaming of a deck above the lowest weather deck (except an exposed forecastle deck) must be at least _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Not required.
The reasoning is that the requirement for the height of the coaming of a deck above the lowest weather deck only applies to vessels that are 40 feet or more in length. Since your vessel is 79 feet long, the coaming height requirement does not apply. The regulations do not mandate a specific coaming height for vessels longer than 40 feet.
The other options are incorrect because they specify coaming height requirements that only apply to vessels 40 feet or less in length, not your 79-foot vessel.
