🔍 Key Concepts

• Pilot transfer arrangements requirements under 46 CFR (look for Subchapter dealing with pilots or pilot ladders) • The purpose of an accommodation ladder and how it relates to pilot safety when freeboard (height of deck above water) increases • Typical safe vertical distances a pilot can reasonably climb on a pilot ladder alone before an additional means is required

💭 Think About

• Think about at what approximate height climbing on a vertical pilot ladder alone becomes less safe and more fatiguing for a pilot boarding at sea • Consider what U.S. regulations aim to balance: operational practicality for ships versus safety margins for pilots in rough conditions • Compare the answer choices to what seems like a realistic maximum continuous climb on a rope ladder in bad weather

✅ Before You Answer

• Check the specific CFR citation that mentions when an accommodation ladder or equally safe and convenient means is required for pilots • Make sure you are not confusing this with limits for embarkation ladders for lifeboats or other unrelated ladder rules • Verify the exact distance above sea level (in feet) used in the regulation, then match it carefully to the closest choice
