🔍 Key Concepts

• Sea anchor (drogue) function and appearance on a liferaft • Difference between parts attached to the raft itself (like ladders and lifelines) and equipment streamed away on a line • How a sea anchor is used to keep the raft’s bow into the wind and reduce drifting

💭 Think About

• Look at which numbered item is shaped like a small parachute or cone that would create drag in the water, rather than something you would grab, climb, or step on • Trace the line or rope attached to that object and see where it leads in relation to the raft • Compare the items near the boarding ladder with the item that is deployed farther away in the water

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that the item you pick would stream in the water ahead of or astern of the raft on a line, not be fixed tight against the tube • Confirm that the object has a broad mouth and narrower tail, suitable for catching water and creating drag • Make sure you are not confusing the boarding ladder or lifelines with the drag-creating device used to steady the raft
