Question 198Deck Safety70% to pass
You are piloting a vessel, which is required to have a radiotelephone, on the navigable waters of the United States. Choose the best answer that states the requirement(s) of the regulations?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) All of the above.
This is the correct answer because the regulations for radiotelephone requirements on navigable waters of the United States stipulate that the vessel must:
1) Have an operator who holds a restricted radiotelephone operator permit or higher license, as well as an FCC ship station license (option A)
2) Maintain a listening watch and communicate in English (option B)
3) Use the bridge-to-bridge VHF-FM designated frequency only to exchange navigational information or necessary tests (option C)
The other options are incorrect because they do not encompass all the regulatory requirements for radiotelephone operations on navigable waters. The correct answer covers the full set of mandated provisions.
