🔍 Key Concepts

• Helicopter hoist operations with life rafts • Purpose and behavior of a sea anchor (drogue) • Basic personal survival techniques during rescue (what must always stay on, what must stay deployed)

💭 Think About

• Think about what parts of the raft or its equipment might get tangled with a hovering helicopter or rescue sling. • Consider which action would affect the raft’s stability the most in waves while a helicopter is overhead. • Ask yourself: during any rescue at sea, is there ever a normal reason to remove a lifejacket before you are safely on board the rescue unit?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the main function of a sea anchor (does it stabilize the raft or present an entanglement hazard near a helicopter?). • Check whether floor inflation/deflation has more to do with insulation and comfort or with capsizing risk during hoisting. • Confirm the standard rule about wearing lifejackets during transfers and hoists.
