On a passenger vessel with stateroom accommodations, which space would NOT be required to be checked by the patrol between 10 pm and 6 am?

Correct Answer: Option A — pilothouse

The pilothouse is a continuously manned space during vessel operations and does not require the same patrol checks as passenger accommodations or galleys. Regulations focus patrol efforts on areas where passengers reside or where fire hazards exist, which are not under constant surveillance by the bridge watch team.
