🔍 Key Concepts

• Small Passenger Vessel Regulations (46 CFR Subchapter T) for survival craft in warm water • Difference in survival craft requirements for cold water vs. warm water operations • How route limitations (within 20 miles of a harbor of safe refuge) affect minimum survival craft capacity

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: For warm water, near-shore routes, does the regulation usually require full (100%) survival craft capacity, or some reduced percentage? • Compare the answer choices: which percentage best reflects a reduced but still substantial level of protection? • Think about the purpose of life floats/buoyant apparatus: are they meant to carry everyone, or to provide partial capacity based on expected rapid rescue near shore?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR Subchapter T the specific table or paragraph that lists survival craft requirements for warm water, limited-distance routes • Confirm whether life floats/buoyant apparatus are allowed in place of full-capacity liferafts on certain warm-water routes • Double‑check that the percentage you choose matches the condition "warm water" AND "within 20 miles of a harbor of safe refuge" together, not just one of them.
