Q

The capacity of any liferaft on board a vessel can be determined by __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• how lifesaving appliances are marked for capacity and approval • what information is required to be on a liferaft container or equipment marking • what documents (like Certificates or Muster Lists) are mainly used for planning vs. physical equipment labeling

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: if you were an inspector walking on deck, where would you quickly verify how many people a specific raft can carry without going to the office? • Which option describes permanent markings on the equipment itself rather than a planning or crewing document? • Which choices describe documents that can become outdated if equipment is swapped, and which one would change automatically with the equipment?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choice points to physical labeling on the equipment itself. • Distinguish between documents used for crew organization and duties versus those for equipment capacity marking. • Consider which reference a port state control officer or Coast Guard inspector would most likely look at when standing right next to the raft.
