USCG Exam Practice · Rule 5 — Look-out

Rule 5 (Look-out) falls within which group of Inland Navigation Rules, and what is the significance of that grouping?

  1. ARules 11–18; it applies only to vessels in sight of one another
  2. BRules 4–10; it applies in any condition of visibility✓ correct
  3. CRules 4–10; it applies only in restricted visibility
  4. DRules 11–18; it applies in any condition of visibility

Why B is correct

33 CFR §83.04 states that Rules 4 through 10 apply in any condition of visibility. Rule 5 (33 CFR §83.05) falls within that group, meaning the look-out requirement is not limited to clear weather or restricted visibility.
