🔍 Key Concepts

• Primary duty of a lookout under Navigation Rules and seamanship practice • Purpose of towing a survival craft during an emergency • Difference between watching for danger and routine maintenance tasks

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In an emergency tow, what is the most critical thing that could go wrong, and who would first notice it? • Which task must be done continuously, with eyes outward, rather than occasionally or inside the boat? • Which option directly supports the safety of the people in the survival craft during the tow?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which choice involves continuous observation for hazards or changes around the survival craft • Eliminate any options that sound like normal shipboard duties instead of emergency watchkeeping • Check which option relates to immediate response if something goes wrong during the tow
