🔍 Key Concepts

• Documented vessel vs. state-registered vessel — who issues and maintains the official documentation? • Which federal agency keeps the official record of a vessel’s name, tonnage, ownership, and endorsements? • The difference between a classification society and a government regulatory/record-keeping agency.

💭 Think About

• Think about which organization actually issues the vessel’s Certificate of Documentation in the United States. • Ask yourself: who has legal authority to approve or record a name change on an official federal vessel record, rather than just inspecting or classifying ships? • Consider which option is a private organization, which are older or outdated terms, and which is the primary U.S. maritime safety and documentation authority.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice is responsible for federal vessel documentation, not taxes or inspections. • Eliminate any option that is a private classification society, not a government agency. • Make sure the agency you choose is the one that maintains the vessel’s official federal records, including name and ownership.
