🔍 Key Concepts

• Mechanical davit operation and purpose • Sequence of launching a lifeboat from stowed position to water • Difference between positioning, lifting, and braking functions in davit systems

💭 Think About

• Think about what part of the lifeboat launching process is specifically handled automatically by the mechanical design of the davit itself, without extra power or manual control • Ask yourself which listed task is normally done by the davit’s gearing and track arrangement rather than by the winch motor or the crew • Consider where the boat must be moved from and to, before people can safely board

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice describes a function usually done by the winch or brake system, not the davit arms and track • Identify the step in the launching sequence where the boat moves from its stowed/inboard position to a place where it can be boarded • Focus on the word "automatically" – which option would naturally result from the davit’s mechanical configuration once it is cranked or released?
