Question 1369Deck Safety70% to pass
If the survival craft is not loaded to full capacity, the personnel should be _______________.
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) loaded equally on both sides with more aft.
This is because when a survival craft is not loaded to its full capacity, the personnel should be loaded equally on both sides with more aft to maintain proper trim and stability. This ensures the survival craft remains balanced and does not become unstable or prone to capsizing. The other options, such as loading more on the port side forward or allowing passengers to sit anywhere, would not maintain the proper weight distribution and could compromise the safety and stability of the survival craft.
