🔍 Key Concepts

• Self-righting survival craft design and how it behaves when capsized • Effect of weight distribution of personnel inside the craft • The role of doors and seatbelts in maintaining the craft’s self-righting ability

💭 Think About

• Think about what lets the craft use its built-in buoyancy and shape to roll back upright without help from the people inside. • Would movement of people toward one side help or interfere with the craft’s natural righting moment? • How could the position of doors (open/closed) affect flooding risk and the ability of the craft to roll over and come back upright?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify how self-righting boats are designed to work: do they rely on passenger movement or on hull/ballast design? • Consider whether open doors during a capsize would allow water in and change stability. • Check which option keeps people secured in place so they don’t interfere with the craft’s automatic righting.
