🔍 Key Concepts

• Watertight integrity – what it means and how it can be lost • How water can travel between compartments (tanks, bilges, spaces) after damage • The effect of openings (tubes, doors, covers) during flooding or collision damage

💭 Think About

• Which option creates a direct or easier path for water to move from a flooded/damaged space into another normally dry space? • Think about which items are supposed to be tightly closed under normal conditions to protect against flooding, and what happens if they are not. • For each choice, ask: does this action/condition improve watertightness, have no real effect, or make it worse in a collision situation?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice involves an opening that should be closed to maintain watertight integrity. • Decide which actions actually increase safety versus those that could allow uncontrolled flooding. • Consider how dewatering systems are normally operated and from where they should be controlled during flooding.
