When given the command "Port Twenty" while on the helm, what should your response be?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — Port Twenty

Standard helm commands require the helmsman to repeat the order exactly as given. This 'repeat-back' procedure ensures that the helmsman has correctly understood the command before executing the maneuver, minimizing the risk of human error during critical navigation or maneuvering situations on the bridge.
