Deck General USCG Q#2926 (Set 93)

If there are any changes in the crew in a foreign port, the changes will be made by __________.

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — the Master on the Shipping Articles

46 U.S.C. 10305 and standard shipping practices dictate that the Master is responsible for maintaining the Shipping Articles. When crew changes occur in a foreign port, the Master must record these changes directly on the Shipping Articles to ensure an accurate, legal record of the vessel's complement.
