🔍 Key Concepts

• Line-throwing appliances requirements under SOLAS and 46 CFR • Difference between breaking strength and safe working load • Typical strength needed for a service line to haul a light messenger vs a person or heavy load

💭 Think About

• Is the service line meant to actually lift or support a person, or mainly to establish a light line/messenger between ship and shore or another vessel? • Given the purpose of a rocket line (initial connection only), which strength range is more realistic and commonly specified in regulations? • How would too low or too high a breaking strength affect the design, weight, and handling of the rocket and its line?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check the regulatory minimum breaking strength for service lines in impulse‑projected rocket line‑throwing appliances (verify in current SOLAS/46 CFR tables). • Confirm you are thinking about the service line of the rocket, not a tow line, mooring line, or lifeline. • Make sure you distinguish between minimum required breaking strength and any safety factor or working load often used in seamanship practice.
