BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND At night, a vessel displaying the lights shown in illustration D052RR below. Which of the following describes this vessel?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) underway.
The lights displayed in illustration D052RR indicate that the vessel is underway at night. The illustration shows a vessel displaying the required navigation lights for a power-driven vessel underway - a masthead light forward, sidelights (red and green), and a stern light. This lighting configuration is specifically required by the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) and the Inland Navigation Rules for a power-driven vessel underway at night.
The other answer choices are incorrect because the lights do not match the requirements for a vessel transferring dangerous cargo (A), aground (B), or at anchor (D).
