Canadian Boating Practice Exam

If you are the owner or operator of a vessel less than 100 tons, what are you not required to have onboard?

1. A life jacket for every passenger

2. The most recent editions of required charts, documents, and publications

3. A functional engine

4. An anchor

The correct answer is: The most recent editions of required charts, documents, and publications

You are not required to have the most recent editions of required charts, documents, and publications onboard because they are not mandatory for vessels under 100 tons. However, it is still a good practice to have up-to-date charts and documents in case of emergencies. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because all vessels, regardless of size, are required to have a life jacket for every passenger, a functional engine, and an anchor onboard for safety purposes.
