Q

Which of the following references should be consulted to identify the name of a vessel based on its Maritime Mobile Service Identity?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) is assigned to individual ships, not shore facilities • Different ITU (International Telecommunication Union) lists are organized by type of station (ship, coast, shore-based facilities, etc.) • Think about which ITU list would logically connect an MMSI number to a ship’s name and details

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Is an MMSI primarily associated with a ship, a coast station, or a shore-based facility in normal GMDSS operations? • Which document title most clearly suggests that it includes ship-specific information plus MMSI assignments? • Eliminate any options that obviously focus on shore or coast stations only, rather than on identifying individual vessels.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option explicitly mentions Ship Stations in its title • Check which option indicates it includes MMSI assignments in the name of the publication • Rule out any list whose primary purpose is for coast or shore-based facilities, not ship identification
