🔍 Key Concepts

• Securing for sea procedures before heavy weather • Why loose gear and unsecured equipment are dangerous in rough seas • What routine engine room checks are done before expected heavy weather

💭 Think About

• Which option best describes preparing the vessel so that equipment and spaces are safe when the ship starts to roll and pitch more? • Which actions would actually increase risk or are unnecessary, rather than improving safety in rough conditions? • Think about what you would want already checked or tied down before the motion gets worse.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice focuses on securing loose items and checking spaces rather than changing normal operations • Eliminate any option that would increase movement or activity in dangerous conditions • Eliminate options that involve unnecessary shutdowns or changes to lighting that are not directly about securing for sea
