Question 1165 Deck Safety
70% to passAll inflatable liferafts have _______________.
A
releasing hooks at each end
B
safety straps from the overhead
C
water stabilizing pockets
D
built in seats
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) water stabilizing pockets. Inflatable liferafts are required to have water stabilizing pockets or ballast pockets that help keep the liferaft stable and upright in the water. These pockets are designed to be filled with water, which adds weight and stability to the liferaft and prevents it from capsizing or drifting away. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) inflatable liferafts do not have releasing hooks at each end, B) they do not have safety straps from the overhead, and D) while they may have built-in seats, this is not a unique or required feature of all inflatable liferafts.
