Which of the following events shall be conducted during a fire and boat drill?
• 46 CFR requirements for fire and boat drills on passenger vessels • Which actions must be done every drill versus inspected at longer intervals • The practical purpose of drills: testing critical systems without causing unnecessary wear or disruption
• Look at each choice and ask: is this something the regulations expect at every single fire and boat drill, or something done on a periodic inspection schedule? • Consider safety and practicality: would performing this action every time be safe and reasonable, or could it create extra risk or equipment wear? • Think about which items are essential to verify quickly in an emergency versus those that can be checked more thoroughly at scheduled maintenance times.
• For each option, decide: is it a mandatory drill action or a periodic inspection/maintenance task? • Check in 46 CFR (Subchapter H or relevant subchapter) what is explicitly listed as part of a fire and boat drill. • Be sure that, if you choose “All of the above,” every single listed action truly must be done at each drill, not just occasionally.
