Q

How must a small passenger vessel's Official Number be marked on the vessel?

🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR requirements for marking the Official Number on documented small passenger vessels • The difference between how the number looks, where it is placed, and how securely it must be attached • The idea that regulations often combine visibility, permanence, and specific format

💭 Think About

• Which choice talks about the appearance and size of the number, and which talks about the location? • Is there a requirement that the marking be difficult to alter or remove, as well as being visible and of a certain size? • When the Coast Guard writes marking rules, do they usually require just one of these elements, or do they often combine format, location, and permanence?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check whether the regulation specifies Arabic numerals of a minimum height for the Official Number • Verify if the Official Number must be on a clearly visible interior structural hull part, not on removable panels or equipment • Confirm if there is a requirement that the marking be permanent enough that tampering or replacement would be obvious
