🔍 Key Concepts

• Gravity davits are commonly used on modern lifeboats for quick launching • Limit switches are electrical or mechanical devices that stop motion at a certain point • Consider which type of davit requires automatic stopping to prevent over-travel or damage

💭 Think About

• Which davit type moves along a track or in a controlled path where travel needs to be stopped automatically? • Which older, manually swung davit designs rely mostly on physical stops and human control rather than electrical limit switches? • Think about which davit systems are usually powered (electric/hydraulic) and integrated with control panels where limit switches are typically installed.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which davit is designed for power-assisted, track-guided lowering of lifeboats • Eliminate davit types that are primarily manual swing-out arms with simple mechanical stops • Ask: On which davit would a failure to stop movement in time most likely cause over-running the track or hitting end stops?
