Question 748Rules of the Road90% to pass
BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND You see the display of lights shown in illustration D054RR below, this could be which of the following?

AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) fishing vessel with outlying gear more than 150 meters.
This is correct because the display of lights shown in illustration D054RR indicates a fishing vessel with outlying gear extending more than 150 meters from the vessel. The International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) require fishing vessels with gear extending more than 150 meters to display the lights shown in the illustration to indicate the presence of the extended gear.
The other options are incorrect because they do not match the specific lighting configuration depicted in the illustration. A fishing vessel at anchor (A), a pilot vessel with a motor launch alongside (B), and a fishing vessel adrift and fishing with handlines (C) would have different light displays.
