USCG Exam Practice · Vessel documentation and numbering

Under 33 CFR §164.35, a vessel fitted with a controllable pitch propeller must display which of the following on the maneuvering information fact sheet in the wheelhouse?

  1. AA table of shaft revolutions per minute for a representative range of speeds
  2. BA table of control settings for a representative range of speeds✓ correct
  3. CA table of vessel speeds at which the bow thruster is effective
  4. DA turning circle diagram for full speed only

Why B is correct

33 CFR §164.35(g)(4) requires that for each vessel with a controllable pitch propeller, the fact sheet include a table of control settings for a representative range of speeds. A table of shaft RPM under §164.35(g)(3) applies to fixed propeller vessels.
