🔍 Key Concepts

• Cold water shock and hypothermia risk when entering the sea • Proper abandonment procedures: entering a survival craft vs. directly entering the water • How liferafts are launched and boarded under emergency conditions

💭 Think About

• Which option keeps you out of the water as much as possible and gets you directly into a survival craft? • Is any choice suggesting you wait too long to abandon ship instead of leaving when ordered? • Does any option mention equipment that is not realistically used or required in standard abandon‑ship procedures?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which actions are intended to avoid direct entry into the water, rather than just making entry slightly safer • Check whether inflating and loading a life raft on deck is consistent with standard launch procedures • Consider if carrying, instead of wearing, critical cold-water protection (like an immersion suit) would be effective once you are already in the water
