Question 1 of 27070

Motor-propelled lifeboats are required to be fitted with which of the following?

🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS requirements for lifesaving appliances, especially motor-propelled lifeboats • The primary purpose and design priorities of a motor-propelled lifeboat • Difference between essential propulsion equipment and optional/older-style equipment

💭 Think About

• Which option directly supports the ability of the boat to move under power in an emergency, regardless of battery condition? • Which items seem more like older, supplemental, or alternative systems rather than a universal modern requirement? • Which choice is clearly about propulsion itself, not just safety, stability, or provisions?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify what SOLAS and LSA Code say about starting arrangements for lifeboat engines • Check whether Fleming gear is a required backup system or just a possible alternative means of propulsion • Consider whether ballast tanks or water storage compartments are universal requirements for motor-propelled lifeboats or are covered under separate provisioning rules
