🔍 Key Concepts

• 46 CFR Subchapter T requirements for small passenger vessels • Required equipment for life floats and buoyant apparatus (not liferafts) • Difference between survival craft signaling gear and basic life float fittings

💭 Think About

• Look at which options include items that would realistically be attached permanently to the float itself, versus loose survival gear usually stored in a locker or liferaft. • Think about whether life floats are designed for long-term survival at sea, or mainly to keep people afloat until quick rescue, and what equipment that purpose really requires. • Ask yourself which items would need maintenance and replacement often (like flares or batteries) versus simple, durable fittings that can stay on the float.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR what is specifically listed as being "attached to" or "installed on" a life float. • Check whether paddles and flares are normally associated with life floats or with other survival craft like liferafts/small boats. • Confirm that the option you choose matches the idea of simple, rugged equipment that can be permanently fitted to the float without frequent servicing.
