Which statement is TRUE concerning the number of portable fire extinguishers required at the operating station of a small passenger vessel? (small passenger vessel regulations)
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — One B-I extinguisher is required.
Small passenger vessel regulations require one B-I portable fire extinguisher to be located at the operating station. This ensures that the operator has immediate access to a fire suppression tool to address electrical or fuel-related fires that may occur near the helm or navigation equipment.
