🔍 Key Concepts

• SOLAS survival craft procedures – what is the primary goal right after launching a lifeboat? • Search and rescue (SAR) – how rescuers find you (position reports, last known position, visibility). • Fuel conservation and safety – why random or unnecessary movement can be dangerous.

💭 Think About

• Think about what information rescue services already have about your ship’s position when you abandon it. • Consider which action makes it easiest for search and rescue units to locate all survivors together, not scattered. • Ask yourself: immediately after launching, is it more important to travel somewhere or to be findable and organized?

✅ Before You Answer

• What does standard abandon‑ship doctrine say about staying near or leaving the vessel’s last known position? • Which choice best supports rapid location by SAR units using the ship’s distress position? • Which option avoids wasting fuel and unnecessarily increasing distance from the ship’s last reported location?
