Question 879Rules of the Road90% to pass
BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which equipment, to generate fog signals, is required on a vessel 20 meters in length?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) Whistle and bell only.
According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) and the Inland Navigation Rules, a vessel 20 meters in length or more is required to be equipped with a whistle and a bell to generate fog signals. The regulations do not mandate the use of a gong for vessels of this size, which makes answer B incorrect. Answers C and D are also incorrect, as both a whistle and a bell are required for a vessel of this length.
