🔍 Key Concepts

• Weak link purpose in a float-free liferaft installation (must break before the raft is held down by the ship) • Location of the hydrostatic release unit (HRU) versus the weak link and painter line • How the raft is connected to the ship: cradle, lashings, HRU, senhouse slip, painter, and deck fitting

💭 Think About

• Trace the path from the liferaft container to the ship’s strong point: which components are meant to HOLD the raft and which ONE is designed to PART at a set load? • Compare the items near the hydrostatic release: which part actually cuts or releases the lashing, and which separate part is a light connector in the painter that sacrifices itself? • Ask yourself: after the HRU activates and the raft inflates, which remaining connection must break so the raft is not dragged down with the ship?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which numbered item is in the painter line between the raft and the ship’s strong point, not in the lashing that holds the container down. • Confirm that the item you choose is the ONLY connection that is designed to fail at a low load (weak, usually a small link or plastic strap). • Make sure you do NOT pick the hydrostatic release unit itself or the senhouse slip; those are different components with different purposes.
