Which vessel(s) is(are) required to comply with the vessel bridge-to-bridge radiotelephone regulations while navigating?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Power-driven vessels 20 meters in length or longer.
The vessel bridge-to-bridge radiotelephone regulations, as outlined in 33 CFR 26, apply to power-driven vessels 20 meters (approximately 65 feet) in length or longer while navigating. These regulations require vessels to maintain a continuous radio watch and to use the radio to exchange navigation safety information with other vessels in the area.
The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) an intermittently manned floating plant is not a vessel subject to these regulations; B) vessels 25 feet or less in length are not required to comply; and C) passenger vessels of 50 gross tons or less are not subject to the bridge-to-bridge radiotelephone requirements.
