Question 1 of 27070

Which is TRUE concerning the requirements of marking the name and hailing port of a documented vessel?

🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR Part 67 – Vessel Documentation marking rules for name, hailing port, and official number • Where the name must appear vs where the hailing port must appear on a documented vessel • Special options for square-bow vessels and towing vessels (including on Western Rivers)

💭 Think About

• Which items are required to be shown on the stern of a documented vessel: name, hailing port, official number, or some combination? • Does the Coast Guard require the official number to be painted on the outside of the hull, or marked permanently in an interior structural part of the vessel? • For square-bow or towing vessels, is the rule that the name must be on each bow side, or is there a more flexible option like any clearly visible exterior part of the bow or superstructure?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check in 46 CFR Part 67 whether the hailing port is required anywhere other than the stern • Confirm whether the official number is an interior permanent marking rather than an external marking requirement • Verify if a Western Rivers towboat is exempt from marking the hailing port or stern markings, or only allowed a different location for displaying the vessel name
