Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — 6-meter vessel under oars

Rule 25(d)(ii) allows a vessel of less than 7 meters in length under oars to exhibit an electric torch or lighted lantern showing a white light in sufficient time to prevent collision. This is a practical exception for very small, manually propelled craft under the Rules.
