The owner or Master of a towing vessel must ensure that each person that directs and controls the movement of the vessel knows all of the following EXCEPT _________.
• 46 CFR Subchapter M requirements for towing vessel personnel knowledge and training • What information is operationally necessary to safely maneuver a towing vessel and its tow • Difference between technical navigation skills and administrative/ownership information
• For safe control of a towing vessel, what must the person at the controls absolutely know in real time? • Which option, if missing, would be LEAST likely to cause an immediate navigational or maneuvering hazard? • Look at which choice is about seamanship/navigation skills versus which is about background or paperwork-type information.
• Identify which options relate directly to safe handling and navigation of the tug and tow • Ask whether each item must be known by the person at the controls while underway to make safe decisions • Check which choice deals more with who owns the equipment rather than how to safely operate it
