Deck General USCG Question #381 (Set 11)

What is TRUE about hoisting operations?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — Personnel not involved in the hoisting operation should be kept clear of the transfer area.

Standard marine safety protocols require all non-essential personnel to remain entirely clear of crane operational envelopes and transfer zones during cargo evolutions to prevent struck-by injuries from shifting or dropped loads.
