BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Under the Rules, the term "vessel" includes __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Navigation Rules – Rule 3 (Definitions), term “vessel” • The phrase "used or capable of being used as a means of transportation on water" • How special craft like rafts, hovercraft, and seaplanes on the water fit into the definition

💭 Think About

• Look at the formal definition of "vessel" in Rule 3 and compare each option to that wording: does it fit the definition or not? • Ask yourself: when each of these craft is actually on the water, can it be used to move people or goods from one place to another on the water? • Consider whether the Rules try to exclude unusual craft, or to include as many waterborne craft as possible for safety purposes.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact wording of Rule 3(a) – Vessel in the Navigation Rules. • For each choice (raft, hovercraft, seaplane), check if it is capable of being used as a means of transportation on water. • Decide whether the definition is narrow (only conventional boats/ships) or broad (covers many different types of craft) before picking your option.
