The knife on an inflatable liferaft will always be located _______________.

AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) in a special pocket near the forward entrance. The knife on an inflatable liferaft is typically located in a special pocket near the forward entrance of the raft. This is specified in the regulations for liferaft equipment, as the knife is an essential tool for cutting the raft free from its painter line or other equipment in an emergency situation. The other options are incorrect because: A) the knife is not on a cord hanging from the canopy, C) it is not stored in the first aid kit, and D) it is not placed in one of the general equipment bags, but rather in a designated location for quick access.
