🔍 Key Concepts

• Motor lifeboat equipment and operating requirements in 46 CFR Subchapter W – Lifesaving Appliances and Arrangements • The intent of fuel requirements: to allow a lifeboat to run long enough for search, maneuvering, and waiting for rescue • Difference between minimum regulatory requirement vs. what might seem practical or intuitive

💭 Think About

• Think about how long survivors in a lifeboat might realistically need powered maneuvering before being picked up in a typical SOLAS/USCG planning scenario. • Consider whether the regulation is aiming for a full day of powered operation, less than a day, or significantly more than a day. • Ask yourself: are fuel requirements usually set at a round operational planning number (like one day) or at an unusually high/low duration?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact wording for motor lifeboat fuel duration in the relevant CFR section on lifeboats, not life rafts or rescue boats. • Be sure you are looking at the requirement for a motor lifeboat, not an inflatable liferaft or other survival craft type. • Confirm whether the regulation specifies a duration in continuous hours of operation and match that to the closest listed choice.
