🔍 Key Concepts

• Emergency procedures sequence on towboats and other inspected vessels • Difference between emergency signals (general, fire, abandon ship) and follow‑up actions like mustering and donning lifejackets • Purpose of a formal abandon ship signal

💭 Think About

• Once the decision is made to abandon ship, what has to happen so that everyone on board simultaneously knows this and can react? • Do you gather people and give them gear first, or do you first trigger the standard, recognizable signal that tells them which emergency procedure to follow? • Which choice represents a communication/alert step, and which are actions that normally occur after that alert is given?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option is a vessel‑wide signal or alarm, not just an instruction to individuals • Think about the typical order: decision → signal → muster → don lifejackets → abandon; which option best matches the first step after the decision? • Verify which step would be written first in an abandon ship emergency station bill right after the master orders abandonment
