🔍 Key Concepts

• Sea painter – what it is and how it connects a lifeboat to a ship • How a lifeboat is controlled and kept in position while the ship still has headway (is moving ahead) • Difference between items used for securing/controlling the boat alongside vs. items used for hoisting/lowering

💭 Think About

• When a ship still has some forward motion, what keeps the lifeboat from drifting back along the ship’s side or under the quarter? • Which item works over a distance from the ship to the boat, and which ones only work right at the davits or from inside the boat? • Which item is specifically intended to control the lifeboat’s position relative to the ship while launching or recovering, especially in a seaway?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is a line (rope) led forward on the ship to control the boat’s bow during launching • Separate the gear used for hoisting/lowering weight from the gear used for controlling position alongside • Make sure you can define each term: sea painter, falls, boat hook, Fleming gear before choosing your answer
