A special boat inspection report shall be conducted as described in what publication?

• A. Coast Guard Public Instructions
• B. Navy Vessel Inspection Manual
• C. Coast Guard Boat Safety Manual
• D. 10%

Answer: (D)

Public Instructions published by the Coast Guard contain the official procedures for inspections and any required reporting, including a special boat inspection report. These instructions lay out how inspections are conducted, what forms to use, who completes them, and how the results are filed and acted upon. That makes them the authoritative source for this kind of reporting. The Navy Vessel Inspection Manual applies to Navy vessels, not Coast Guard procedures. The Coast Guard Boat Safety Manual covers general safety guidance rather than the specific reporting process for a special inspection. And a percentage is not a publication, so it wouldn’t govern inspection reporting.
