🔍 Key Concepts

• Lifesaving appliances terminology in 46 CFR and SOLAS (difference between devices you hold onto vs devices you ride in** • Physical form and intended use of a life ring, life float, inflatable liferaft, and survival capsule • Which devices are designed for in‑water support for groups instead of out‑of‑water protection

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which option describes equipment where survivors stay in the water and simply hold on, rather than climbing inside or onto it? • Consider which of these devices is specifically meant to support multiple people together in the water as a group, not just one or two individuals. • Think about how SOLAS and U.S. regulations classify lifesaving appliances: which ones are classified as buoys or floats, and which as rafts or enclosed craft?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which item’s primary function is group buoyant support while occupants remain in the water, not out of it. • Check which options are designed to be boarded or entered (people climb in/on) versus only grasped or held onto. • Confirm from definitions that a ring‑shaped buoy is usually sized for one or two persons, not a whole group of survivors.
