🔍 Key Concepts

• Tail shaft surveys and why they are done when the shaft is drawn • Typical critical stress areas on a tail shaft (where cracks or corrosion are most likely) • Difference between checking alignment/leakage and checking the shaft itself

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: When the tail shaft is physically removed from the vessel, which parts become fully visible and are most logical to closely inspect at that time? • Which option focuses on the metal condition of the shaft and hub rather than surrounding structure or bearings? • Which inspections could be done without completely drawing the shaft, and which really benefit from the shaft being out of the vessel?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option clearly targets areas of stress concentration on the shaft (tapers, keyways, changes in section). • Check which choices talk about things that can often be checked in place (alignment, leaks) versus what truly needs the shaft drawn. • Confirm that the chosen option relates to the primary reason class/flag require tail shaft drawing: detecting cracks, wear, or corrosion in critical sections.
