Q

What is NOT surveyed at an annual load line survey?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Annual load line survey purpose – what the survey is trying to confirm about the vessel • Items that affect watertight integrity and reserve buoyancy • Difference between load line survey items and items normally covered under other statutory surveys (e.g., machinery or safety equipment surveys)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which choice is more related to machinery operation than to hull watertight integrity or freeboard conditions? • Which items, if defective, would directly change how low the ship can safely sit in the water or how water could enter the hull? • Is there any option that seems more like a one‑time design approval issue rather than something that must be re‑checked every year for condition and tightness?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options are directly tied to hull openings and watertight/weathertight closures • Consider which survey would normally cover pumping systems and machinery instead of structural freeboard issues • Think about whether the overall arrangement/superstructure is something that is frequently altered, or mainly checked when the ship is built or modified, not just annually
