✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR what equipment must be associated with ring life buoys on vessels operating at night (water light requirements). • Consider whether the regulation focuses on location of the buoy or on equipment attached to it. • Think about whether a permanently attached line is universally required, or only in certain situations or vessel types.
