The wording is wrong on this question.

"... on the OVERTAKING vessel's port side." should read, "... on the OVERTAKEN vessel's port side."

E. None of the above. RTQ2 Since a WoodChuck can't and wouldn't "Chuck" wood the answer is Dirt. They don't care about wood, they "Chuck" dirt. And that being about 700lbs for an average burrow.
