Show the answer
Correct answer: c) The Seaman's Book (Libreta de Navegación Marítima).
Why it is correct

- a) The professional card certifies the qualification held, not the log of sea service.
- b) The SID (ILO 185) is a personal identity document and does not contain sea service records.
- d) The certificate of competency certifies STCW qualification, not individual sea service entries.
How to work it out in the exam
- Personal record of sea service periods (RD 269/2022) = Seaman's Book (Libreta de Navegación Marítima).
