On an oceangoing vessel, for each person a lifeboat (without desalting kits) is certified to carry, what must the boat be supplied with?

🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS lifeboat equipment requirements for oceangoing vessels • Difference between personal lifesaving appliances and lifeboat survival stores • Required food and water rations in lifeboats without desalting equipment

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: is this item something worn or carried by each person, or something stored as a group supply in the boat? • Which of these options would be most critical for survival over several days at sea if no freshwater can be produced? • Think about which items are already required to be provided elsewhere on the vessel for each person and may not need to be duplicated per person in the lifeboat.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check what SOLAS/46 CFR specify for lifeboat rations per person when there is no desalting kit on board the boat. • Verify whether life preservers (PFDs) are regulated under lifeboat equipment or under separate lifesaving appliance rules. • Confirm which of the listed items (milk, water, whistle, life preserver) is actually given a specific quantity per person in the regulations for lifeboats.
