🔍 Key Concepts

• Certificate of Inspection (COI) contents and purpose • What information is normally shown on a muster list / station bill • Which documents are considered general ship’s papers vs. specific regulatory certificates

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which document is issued by the Coast Guard and specifically lists the required safety and firefighting equipment for the vessel? • Think about what a muster list (station bill) actually shows—does it list the equipment, or the crew’s duties and emergency stations? • Which of these choices sounds like a very general term, and which sounds like a formal regulatory document that would itemize equipment?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which document formally lists safety and firefighting equipment required for that particular vessel and route. • Confirm that the muster list / station bill is mainly about duties, signals, and where crew report in an emergency—not a detailed inventory of equipment. • Eliminate any option that is just a vague description of paperwork rather than a specific regulatory certificate.
