Q

You are on a 92-foot fishing vessel with 35 individuals on board. Which one of the following items are you NOT required to have on board?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Navigation equipment requirements in 46 CFR based on vessel length and service (fishing vs. passenger/ cargo) • Differences between magnetic compass and gyro compass carriage requirements • When VHF radiotelephone and electronic position fixing devices (like GPS) are mandated on commercial vessels

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself which of these items is considered the most "basic" navigation equipment that almost all commercial vessels must carry, regardless of size • Think about which items are tied to larger tonnage / international voyages / SOLAS ships, rather than a 92-foot fishing vessel • Consider whether U.S. regulations for commercial fishing vessels treat them the same as large cargo ships for high-end navigation gear

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which navigation equipment items are specifically required for commercial fishing vessels around 90 feet in 46 CFR • Check if any of these items are only required for larger tonnage or SOLAS vessels, not for smaller domestic fishing vessels • Confirm which item is typically found only on larger, more sophisticated ships rather than small-to-medium fishing vessels
