🔍 Key Concepts

• Bilge sounding tells you what liquid is in the bilge and how much is there • Why water (or other liquid) might appear in a cargo hold bilge: hull leaks, cargo leaks, or normal moisture/condensation • Bilge levels as an early warning of damage, leakage, or abnormal conditions in the hold

💭 Think About

• Think about all the different ways liquid can end up in a cargo hold bilge on a loaded ship • Ask yourself: if you see an unexpected increase in bilge water, what possible problems could that warn you about? • Consider whether bilge soundings are specific to one type of problem, or if they can reflect several different issues at once

✅ Before You Answer

• Review what information a sounding actually gives you (level/amount of liquid, not its exact source by itself) • Consider whether each choice (A, B, C) could realistically cause increased liquid in the cargo hold bilge • Check if the question is asking for the single most specific use or the overall range of conditions that bilge soundings can indicate
