Where are the draft marks required to be displayed on a ship?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option A — Area of water line near stem and stern
Load line regulations and 46 CFR require permanent draft marks to be clearly and accurately displayed on both sides of the hull near the forward stem, aft stern post, and optionally amidships to verify deadweight, trim, and stability compliance prior to departure.
