🔍 Key Concepts

• Emergency alarms and signals on board and what each one is used for • Difference between abandon ship and internal emergency responses • Immediate priorities after a grounding and flooding (protect life, alert crew, control damage)

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: What must everyone on board know right away so they can respond to flooding and possible damage? • In a grounding with flooding, do you first prepare to leave the ship, or first get everyone alerted and organized to fight the emergency? • Which option provides the fastest way to warn all crew and muster emergency parties inside the ship?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which signal or alarm is used to alert all crew to an onboard emergency such as fire, flooding, or collision. • Check which signal is specifically tied to the order to leave the vessel entirely and is not usually the first action. • Consider which actions (like pumping ballast or rigging for tow) are not immediate life-safety responses at the moment of grounding.
