🔍 Key Concepts

• Meaning of flooding boundaries on a vessel (what structures usually form the boundary of a watertight compartment?) • Difference between watertight integrity of decks and bulkheads • How the phrase "boundaries intact" would affect which structural elements are still watertight

💭 Think About

• If a compartment is said to have its boundaries intact, what does that suggest about the condition of its watertight structures? • In a partially flooded compartment, what must be true about the decks and bulkheads if the ship is still relying on that space as a proper watertight compartment? • Look at each option: which one best matches the ordinary damage control definition of a watertight compartment whose boundaries are still sound?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm what is normally meant by compartment boundaries in damage control (bulkheads and decks forming the watertight envelope). • Check which answer choices say the boundaries (bulkheads and decks) are still watertight and which say they have lost watertight integrity. • Eliminate any option where both main boundaries are described as having lost watertight integrity, since that would contradict the phrase "boundaries intact".
