🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS liferaft stowage height limits for davit-launched and throw-overboard liferafts • Purpose of limiting liferaft height above the waterline (survivability after launch) • Difference between regulatory limits and items printed on ship documents (like COI, Muster List)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: if a liferaft is too high above the water, what problems could that cause when it inflates and hits the sea? • Which choice looks like a specific international/regulatory limit, and which look like administrative or paperwork items? • Think about typical free-fall or drop heights for survival craft; which number is closer to what you’ve seen in regulations or training?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm which option is an explicit numerical height limit likely to appear in SOLAS/46 CFR for liferaft stowage. • Check whether the Certificate of Inspection (COI) or Muster List usually set technical design limits, or just describe arrangements and assignments. • Eliminate any option that does not directly give a maximum height above the waterline in meters/feet.
