Where is the master gyro?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — In the Gyro room
The master gyrocompass is a sensitive, precision instrument that requires a stable, climate-controlled, and vibration-isolated environment to maintain accuracy. It is housed in a dedicated gyro room, separate from the wheelhouse, to protect the delicate internal gimbals and electronics from the operational environment of the bridge.
