Two individuals authorized to serve as a lifeboatman must be assigned to any lifeboat that has a capacity of more than _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 40 persons.
According to the regulations for United States Coast Guard Captain's License Examinations, any lifeboat with a capacity of more than 40 persons must have at least two individuals authorized to serve as a lifeboatman assigned to it. This requirement is in place to ensure proper supervision and operation of the lifeboat in the event of an emergency.
The other answer choices are incorrect because lifeboats with capacities of 10, 20, or 30 persons do not require two lifeboatmen under the relevant regulations.
