2. BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND What determines if a vessel is "restricted in her ability to maneuver"?
Whether or not all of the vessel's control equipment is in working order The vessel's draft in relation to the available depth of water Whether the nature of the vessel's work limits maneuverability required by the Rules Whether or not the vessel is the give-way vessel in a meeting situation
3. INLAND ONLY What characteristic must a light used to indicate passing intentions have?
It must be an alternating red and yellow light. It must be an all-round white light. It must be an all-round yellow light. It must be either an all-round white or an all-round yellow light.
4. BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Which lights would be shown at night by a vessel which is restricted in her ability to deviate from her course?
Three red lights in a vertical line Three white lights in a vertical line Three lights in a vertical line, the highest and lowest white and the middle red Three lights in a vertical line, the highest and lowest red and the middle white
5. INTERNATIONAL ONLY Which dayshape is prescribed for a vessel constrained by her draft?
A black diamond A cylinder A black ball A black cone, apex upward
6. BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND A vessel that is defined as "restricted in her ability to maneuver" is unable to keep out of the way of another vessel due to __________.

You should make an ample change to port for a vessel crossing on the starboard bow. You should maneuver in ample time if a close-quarters situation is developing. You should determine the course and speed of all radar contacts at six minute intervals. Long-range scanning will provide early warning of ALL other vessels within the radar's range.
9. INLAND ONLY What is not contained in the Inland Navigation Rules?
An inconspicuous, partly submerged object Lights on pipelines A vessel constrained by her draft An air-cushion vessel
10. BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Two vessels are meeting head-on. How must the vessels pass?
