Q

During an abandonment or drill, the first person to arrive at the survival craft should __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• abandon ship procedures in vessel’s muster list or station bill • safe preparation of a lifeboat or life raft before people board • which actions could create danger if done too early (e.g., release, sprinklers, food/water)

💭 Think About

• Before anyone gets in the survival craft, what must be done to make it safe and ready for boarding? • Which of these options sounds like a later-stage task that would only happen after people are already aboard and organized? • Which option, if done first and alone, could increase risk instead of increasing safety for the group?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice focuses on initial preparation of the craft itself rather than caring for people already inside • Eliminate any option that involves releasing or moving the craft before it is properly loaded and cleared to launch • Ask whether sprinklers, food, or water are truly part of the very first action when you are the first one at the survival craft
