    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that the turn of tide is the reason why deck watchkeepers should be aware of the draught of the vessel during loading and unloading. However, this is not true. The draught of a vessel refers to the depth of water needed to float the ship. Deck watchkeepers need to be aware of the draught to ensure that the vessel does not run aground or become unstable during these operations. The turn of tide does not have a direct impact on the draught of the vessel.

    After infoming the master of the emergency, the deck OIC may request assistance from the other vessel if necessary in port

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because the deck OIC, after informing the master of an emergency, has the authority to request assistance from another vessel if necessary while in port. This is a common practice in maritime operations to ensure the safety and security of the ship and its crew. The deck OIC may need additional resources or expertise to handle the emergency situation, and requesting assistance from another vessel can help in mitigating the risks and resolving the issue effectively.

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that the master of a vessel has the authority to determine the composition of the engineering watch for vessels that have less propulsion power than what is required. This means that the master can decide how many engineers and other personnel are needed to operate and maintain the vessel's engine and related systems.

    The duration of the port may also depend on the tonnage of the cargo on board

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that the duration of the port, referring to the time a ship spends at a port, may vary depending on the tonnage of the cargo it is carrying. This means that if a ship has a larger cargo load, it may take longer to unload and load the cargo at the port, resulting in a longer duration. Conversely, a ship with a smaller cargo load may have a shorter duration at the port. Therefore, the statement is true.

    The position of the ship must also be recorded in the radio record book every end of the watch

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because the position of the ship does not need to be recorded in the radio record book at the end of every watch. While it is important to maintain a record of the ship's position for navigation and safety purposes, it is not specifically required to be recorded in the radio record book. Other logs or documents may be used to record the ship's position.

    The rise and fall of the water in port has an effect on the manner the gangway is secured

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The rise and fall of the water in port affects the manner in which the gangway is secured. This suggests that the water level plays a role in determining how the gangway is fastened or anchored to ensure stability and safety. The fluctuation in water level can impact the positioning and stability of the gangway, making it necessary to adjust the securing method accordingly. Therefore, the statement is true.

    Radio record book must be available for inspection of all persons on board

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement "Radio record book must be available for inspection of all persons on board" is not true. While it is important for the radio record book to be maintained on board a vessel, it is not necessary for it to be available for inspection by all persons on board. The radio record book is primarily used for recording important radio communication details and is typically inspected by authorized personnel such as maritime authorities or auditors.
