🔍 Key Concepts

• Construction and stability features of inflatable liferafts • How liferafts resist wind and wave action when deployed • Difference between items attached underneath the raft vs. those trailing behind

💭 Think About

• Think about which option is specifically designed to be filled with water and add weight directly under the raft. • Consider which device is normally streamed out on a line in front of or behind a vessel or raft, rather than attached to its underside. • Ask yourself: which of these features is commonly shown in liferaft diagrams as several pockets or bags hanging below the floor?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which item is mounted directly to the underside of the inflatable liferaft’s floor. • Confirm which option’s main purpose is to provide stability and resistance to capsizing, not steering or directional control. • Eliminate any choice that normally belongs to the hull of a boat rather than a soft inflatable raft.
