🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS liferaft construction and equipment requirements – how lifelines are arranged for boarding and holding on • Purpose of a lifeline (liferaft grabline) – how many people should be able to hold it and from where • Difference between a tow line at bow/stern and a lifeline/grabline for survivors in the water

💭 Think About

• Think about how people in the water need to hold on to the raft from any direction in rough seas – what lifeline placement best supports that? • Consider how the raft might rotate, drift, or change heading in the water – which location would still allow access to the line? • Ask yourself if a single point (bow or stern) or a limited section (middle) gives the same safety and accessibility as a fully accessible arrangement.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify where a grab line/lifeline is shown on standard SOLAS liferaft diagrams (inside only, outside only, or all around). • Check whether the lifeline is meant for towage or for people to cling to and assist boarding – that changes where it should be. • Confirm that the chosen option allows maximum number of survivors to hold on from any side of the raft.
