🔍 Key Concepts

• EPIRB purpose and use – what the beacon is for and when it’s needed • SOLAS/46 CFR expectations for readiness and testing of lifesaving equipment • Difference between stowage requirements and testing/inspection frequency

💭 Think About

• If the vessel suddenly has to be abandoned, which options would make the EPIRB hardest to reach or unable to float free? • Which choice matches the idea of regularly checking emergency gear so it will work when needed, without waiting too long between checks? • Think about what the Master can realistically "ensure" on a routine basis: a physical location, or a recurring operational check?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option supports immediate availability in an emergency rather than locking the unit away • Consider standard guidance that EPIRBs have a built-in self-test meant for use at a routine interval (not only once a year) • Eliminate any option that would reduce the chance the EPIRB can be used or float free if the bridge or interior spaces are compromised
