Which situation requires you to furnish a notice of marine casualty to the Coast Guard?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option A — Your vessel is at anchor and grounds at low tide with no apparent damage.
46 CFR 4.05-1 mandates immediate notice of marine casualty for grounding events, even if temporary and without apparent damage, because grounding inherently threatens vessel safety and navigation.
