AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) Helmsman.
The helmsman is responsible for lowering the survival craft.

The helmsman is trained and designated to safely lower the survival craft in an emergency situation, ensuring a controlled and orderly evacuation.
The other options are incorrect because the roustabout (A) is a general laborer, the first man aboard (B) and last man aboard (C) do not have specific responsibilities for launching the survival craft.
