You are part of a search team and have been told that the wiper was last sighted next to the fire pump (s) in the lower engine room. Utilizing illustration D038SA below, what is the exact location of the fire pump(s)?
• Locate the fire pump symbol on the lower half of the D038SA engine-room plan and distinguish it from other fire main fittings or valves. • Use the frame numbers along the centerline scale to determine the exact frame where the pump(s) sit. • Confirm whether the pump(s) are inside the main machinery space or the auxiliary machinery space, and whether they are on the port (left looking forward) or starboard (right looking forward) side.
• On the lower engine-room (bottom half of the illustration), which red pump symbols are actually labeled as fire pumps, and how many are there? • When you line up the pump symbol(s) with the frame-number scale, what frame number do they fall closest to, and are they within the machinery space boundaries or the auxiliary machinery boundaries? • Looking forward, is the pump located to your left or right side, and which multiple-choice option matches that combination of compartment + side + frame?.
• Verify that you are looking at the lower deck portion of the plan (the bottom half of the illustration), not the upper one. • Double‑check the frame number printed next to the pump symbol(s) and match it exactly to the answer choices—don’t rely on eyeballing the scale alone. • Confirm the space label ("MACHINERY SPACE" vs "AUXILIARY MACHINERY") printed where the pump is located, and ensure the side is correctly identified as port or starboard.
