🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for tests, drills, and inspections on Offshore Supply Vessels (OSVs) expected to be away from shore for 48 hours or more • The specific time window before departure when critical systems (like communications) must be tested • Difference between routine daily checks and pre-departure required checks tied to voyage duration

💭 Think About

• Look for the 46 CFR section that covers OSV tests and drills prior to departure—what does it say about vessels away from shore for at least 48 hours? • Ask yourself: does the regulation require that this communication test be done very close to sailing time, or is a longer look‑back window allowed? • Compare the answer choices: which time window most closely matches the wording in the regulation about maximum time before departure for communication tests?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm the regulation is specifically for offshore supply vessels (OSVs) and not for general cargo or passenger vessels. • Verify the exact phrase in 46 CFR about testing communications between the pilothouse and the engine room and note the maximum allowable hours before departure. • Make sure the answer you pick matches the regulation’s wording about vessels that will be away from shore for at least 48 hours—that condition matters.
