🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS liferaft boarding procedures and why lifejackets are worn, not removed, in emergencies • What conditions inside a closed inflatable liferaft could be dangerous before people enter (think air quality and pressure) • Whether you should intentionally cut or damage any part of a liferaft as part of normal boarding procedures

💭 Think About

• For each option, ask yourself: would this increase or decrease survivor safety just before boarding, based on standard survival craft practice? • Think about the purpose of a lifejacket and whether there is ever a normal situation where removing it makes boarding a survival craft safer overall. • Consider what might build up inside an enclosed raft that has just been inflated and how you would make sure the atmosphere is safe before people go in.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify from your survival craft / liferaft procedures whether lifejackets are worn or removed when boarding a davit-launched liferaft. • Check whether normal procedures call for ventilating the raft or for immediately closing it up tight to keep water and spray out. • Confirm if cutting away and stowing the door flap is part of standard instructions, or if the flap is meant to remain intact to maintain the raft’s weather protection and watertight integrity.
