If an inflatable liferaft is overturned, it may be righted by _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) standing on the inflating cylinder and pulling on the straps on the underside of the raft.
This is the correct answer because this is the recommended procedure for righting an overturned inflatable liferaft. By standing on the inflating cylinder and pulling on the straps underneath, you can generate the force needed to flip the raft back over. This method allows you to leverage your body weight and the liferaft's design to right the raft without needing to manually fill stabilizers or release the CO2 cylinder.
The other options are incorrect because filling stabilizers, releasing the CO2 cylinder, or pushing up from one end would not provide the necessary force to reliably right an overturned inflatable liferaft.
