On a rigid liferaft (SOLAS B pack) which is equipped with all of the required equipment you may NOT find a __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS liferaft equipment schedules (difference between Pack A and Pack B) • Purpose of equipment meant for short-duration survival vs long-duration survival • Which items are focused on immediate survival and seaworthiness rather than long-term living

💭 Think About

• Ask which of these items is most critical for keeping the raft dry and habitable in the first few hours after abandonment. • Consider which item would be used mainly for signaling rather than for water removal or raft maintenance. • Think about which item is more associated with long-term survival at sea rather than the shorter voyages SOLAS B packs are intended for.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which SOLAS pack (A vs B) is intended for shorter international voyages. • Check which items are specifically required for water removal and raft maintenance (keeping the raft afloat and livable). • Confirm which piece of gear is normally included only when planning for extended time adrift rather than a short rescue window.
