🔍 Key Concepts

• Master’s obligations to the U.S. Consul regarding transport of destitute seamen • Situations where a Master is allowed to refuse a request from authorities (e.g., safety, overloading, legality) • How a Certificate of Inspection (COI) and contagious disease restrictions affect taking extra persons on board

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Is the Master’s duty to the American Consul absolute, or are there specific safety/health exceptions where he may lawfully decline? • Consider what the COI limits (number and type of persons on board). Would carrying this extra person in violation of the COI ever be acceptable? • Think about public health on ships: Would regulations allow or forbid taking on someone with a contagious disease, even at the Consul’s request?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify when a Master is normally required to comply with a Consul’s request to transport a destitute seaman. • Check whether violating the Certificate of Inspection is ever permitted to comply with another requirement. • Confirm whether a contagious disease is recognized as a valid reason not to carry someone, even if requested by an official.
