🔍 Key Concepts

• Small passenger vessel lifesaving equipment requirements in 46 CFR (look in Subchapter T or K, depending on vessel) • Specific requirements for painters on life floats and buoyant apparatus (length, strength, how they are attached) • The purpose of a painter: what it needs to be able to reach or allow the vessel to do in an emergency

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: what is a painter on a life float supposed to be used for, and how far away from the vessel or the waterline might it reasonably need to reach? • Compare the answer choices to the likely size of the vessel and distance needed to safely deploy and hold the life float clear of the ship’s side. • Think about which lengths are clearly too short to be useful and which might be impractically long for a small passenger vessel installation.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact painter length requirement for life floats in the small passenger vessel lifesaving equipment section of 46 CFR (Subchapter T/K). • Confirm you are reading the section for life floats/buoyant apparatus, not lifeboats or liferafts (those can have different painter requirements). • Check whether the regulation mentions a minimum length ("not less than") and make sure you match that wording directly to one of the choices.
