Where must ships station logs be kept during a voyage?

• A. In the ship's navigational log at the wheelhouse
• B. In the captain's cabin
• C. At the principal radiotelephone operating position
• D. On the bridge console

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is that the ship’s station log must be accessible where radio operations are actually conducted. The log records all radio communications and must be kept at the principal radiotelephone operating position so the on‑duty radio operator can immediately update and review it as traffic flows. Placing the log in the wheelhouse, the captain’s cabin, or on the bridge console would separate it from the area where radio messages are sent and received, making it harder to maintain accurately and inspect. Keeping it at the primary radiotelephone station ensures it’s readily available for ongoing communications and regulatory checks.
