Q

Your vessel has 3 lifeboats on each side. The middle lifeboat on the port side is designated as which boat number?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Numbering of lifeboats on each side of a vessel • How lifeboat numbers usually increase from forward to aft on each side • Difference (if any) between port and starboard numbering

💭 Think About

• If there are 3 boats on one side, how would you label them in order from forward to aft? • Does the numbering restart on the port side or continue from the starboard side, and how does that affect the middle boat? • Think about whether the word PORT would normally be part of the official boat number or just a location description.

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm how lifeboats are sequentially numbered along the ship’s length • Check whether odd/even numbering is used for different sides of the vessel • Verify if side designations like PORT/STARBOARD are usually added to or separate from the numerical boat number
