🔍 Key Concepts

• Study the illustration and trace what the rods marked (1) are physically connected to inside the lifeboat. • Know the difference between falls releasing gear (for hoisting/lowering the boat) and sea painter release devices like Fleming gear or McCluny hook. • Recall that the sea painter is a line at the bow used to keep the boat alongside, while the falls are the wires/ropes from the davits used to lower/hoist the boat.

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Do the parts labeled (1) seem to be leading toward the hooks where the davit falls attach, or toward the bow where the painter would be made fast? • Which of the answer choices refers to gear that acts on both ends of the boat at the same time through a central control? • Look at where the person in the boat would stand to use item (1) and ask: are they trying to let go of the falls, or just cast off the painter?.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in the picture whether the rods at (1) are linked to mechanisms at both ends of the boat (fore and aft hooks). • Confirm which listed device is designed to simultaneously release both falls when the boat is safely waterborne. • Eliminate any option that is only associated with the painter line at the bow rather than with the davit falls.
