Deck General USCG Question #4540 (Set 145)

Which type of ice is a hazard to navigation?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option A — Growlers

Growlers are small pieces of ice, generally less than three meters across and extending less than one meter above the water, weighing under 100 tonnes. Their low profile makes them nearly invisible on radar and visually, presenting a severe structural hazard to navigating vessels.
