🔍 Key Concepts

• Immersion suits are required based mainly on cold-water operations and latitude • Offshore Supply Vessels (OSVs) follow specific Subchapter L rules in 46 CFR for lifesaving appliances • Think about what latitudes are generally associated with tropical/warm waters versus cold waters where hypothermia is a major risk

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: at what latitudes does water temperature typically become low enough that an immersion suit is considered necessary for survival in the water? • Compare each option and think: which latitude band moves far enough away from the equator that cold-water risk becomes significant for an OSV operating in the Atlantic? • Consider that regulations often choose a round-number latitude that clearly separates warm/tropical from colder regions—look for which option best fits that idea

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR Part 133 (Lifesaving Systems for OSVs) where immersion suit requirements are discussed with reference to latitude • Check which specific latitude line is commonly used in regulations to distinguish tropical from non-tropical or colder waters • Before choosing, be sure the option you select matches a single, symmetric latitude limit used both north and south of the equator, not a random number
