Le preguntan sobre su calado máximo actual y debe responder que es de 4 metros. ¿Cuál de estas opciones es correcta?You are asked for your present maximum draught and must reply that it is 4 metres. Which IMO SMCP option is correct?
Show the answer
Correct answer: b) My present maximum draft is 4 metres.
Why it is correct
In the IMO SMCP, current maximum draught is termed 'present maximum draft', so the standard reply is 'My present maximum draft is 4 metres'.
Why the others are not
- a) The SMCP uses 'present maximum draft', not 'deepest draft at the moment'.
- c) 'Actual' is a false friend; for 'current/at present' the SMCP uses 'present'.
- d) 'Calado máximo' is 'maximum draft', not 'deepest draft'.
How to work it out in the exam
- Mi calado máximo actual es de 4 metros (SMCP): 'My present maximum draft is 4 metres'.
