Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — All of the above

Look-outs must maintain an all-around visual and auditory watch per COLREGS Rule 5. Reporting discolored water, floating objects, and shoals is essential for early navigational hazard identification, collision avoidance, and ensuring vessel safety in coastal or restricted waters.
