What is the Master's responsibility regarding the yacht's stability information and the actual loading condition (fuel, water, stores, guest numbers, tender/toys aboard) before departure?

A. Stability information only needs to be consulted once, at the time of original certification, never again

B. Loading condition has no bearing on a yacht's safety since yachts are inherently more stable than merchant vessels

C. Stability checks are only relevant for cargo vessels, not yachts, since yachts do not carry cargo

D. Confirm the vessel's actual departure condition remains within the parameters the stability information and Code requirements are based on — adding significant weight (e.g. large tenders, water toys, extra stores) without checking the effect on stability and freeboard is not a minor administrative oversight

A. A code that replaced the Merchant Shipping (Load Line) Regulations in their entirety

B. A brand new code with no relationship to any previous yacht-specific regulation

C. A code that applies only to yachts under 24 metres

D. A single combined code replacing the Large Yacht Code (LY3) and the Passenger Yacht Code (PYC), now issued as MSN 1895 (M) with REG Part A and Part B respectively

A. Only yachts carrying more than 12 passengers

B. Yachts of 24 metres load line length and over, in commercial use for sport or pleasure, that do not carry cargo and carry no more than 12 passengers

C. All vessels of any length used for any commercial purpose

D. Only yachts under 24 metres in length
