Question 2908Deck General70% to pass
The name and hailing port of a documented commercial vessel is _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) required to be marked on the stern with the name of the vessel marked on both bows.
This is the correct answer because the regulations require the name and hailing port of a documented commercial vessel to be marked on the stern and on both bows of the vessel. This requirement is specified in 46 CFR 67.123, which states that the vessel's name and hailing port must be displayed in clearly legible letters at least 4 inches high on the stern of the vessel and on both sides of the bow.
The other options are incorrect because B) requires marking on the keel in addition to the bows, which is not the regulation, C) states the markings are not required at all, which is incorrect, and D) adds the keel as a required location, which is not part of the regulations.
