While inspecting the steering system at sea, you should check for __________.
• Steering gear inspections at sea – what problems are most likely to develop while the system is operating under load? • Hydraulic steering systems – what condition would be most critical for immediate safety of steering? • Difference between routine observations and urgent fault indicators.
• When you are already at sea and inspecting steering gear, which condition could most directly lead to loss of steering if it is present? • Think about which option, if discovered, would require you to take prompt corrective action or prepare for a possible steering failure. • Which of these checks would be the broadest safety check, not just a normal operating observation?
• Which choice relates to a fault or failure condition rather than just normal operation? • Which condition, if present, could quickly reduce hydraulic pressure or effectiveness? • Which option represents something you’d want to detect anywhere in the system, not just at a single component?
