Which navigation equipment do boats over 9m up to 12m need to have?

  1. Satellite phone

  2. A magnetic compass, sound signalling device, and navigation lights

  3. A wind indicator

  4. A depth gauge

The correct answer is: A magnetic compass, sound signalling device, and navigation lights

Boats over 9m up to 12m need to have a magnetic compass, sound signalling device, and navigation lights according to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS). A satellite phone may be helpful as a communication device, but it is not a required navigation equipment. A wind indicator and depth gauge may also be useful, but they are not mandatory for this particular size of boat. It is important to follow proper navigation equipment requirements to ensure safety while out on the water.
