Question 1 of 27070

Major repairs or alterations affecting the safety of small passenger vessels of less than 100 gross tons shall __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• OCMI (Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection) authority over inspected small passenger vessels • What counts as major repairs or alterations affecting safety under 46 CFR for small passenger vessels • Whether Coast Guard approval is needed before work begins

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When something could impact the safety of passengers, does the Coast Guard generally want to know and approve it first, or allow operators to act entirely on their own? • Look at the wording: which option best reflects regulatory control over inspected vessels, not just paperwork or operator convenience? • Consider whether a specific Coast Guard form number would realistically be named in a basic licensing exam question, or if the rule is stated more generally.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR Subchapter T (Small Passenger Vessels under 100 GT) what it says about repairs and alterations affecting safety. • Check whether the regulation requires knowledge and approval of the OCMI before work, or explicitly allows work without such approval. • Confirm that none of the choices add extra, suspicious details (like a very specific form number) that don’t appear in the general regulatory language.
