Life floats must be equipped with _______________. (small passenger vessel regulations)
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) paddles.
According to the small passenger vessel regulations, life floats must be equipped with paddles. This is because life floats are intended to provide a temporary means of flotation and safety for passengers and crew in the event of an emergency, and paddles are necessary to help propel and maneuver the life float as needed.
The other answer choices are incorrect because a sea anchor (B) is not a required equipment item, an EPIRB (C) is a separate emergency signaling device, and a signal mirror (D) is also not a mandated piece of life float equipment.
