General Navigation USCG Question #983 (Set 31)

A vessel entering the eye of a hurricane should expect __________.

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — All of the above

Entering the eye of a hurricane results in a sudden, deceptive calm, but the vessel remains surrounded by the eyewall. The barometer reaches its minimum, winds shift abruptly as the wall passes, and the sea state remains heavy and confused due to the convergence of waves from all directions.
