70% to pass

All personnel boarding a davit-launched liferaft from a MODU should be checked. Which of the following items is of the highest importance to ensure that they are not in possession of or wearing?

A drugs or paraphernalia not approved by a medical doctor
B oil stained shoes or clothing
C matches or cigarette lighters
D sharp objects that may puncture or damage the liferaft
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) sharp objects that may puncture or damage the liferaft. This is the correct answer because it is critical to ensure that personnel boarding a davit-launched liferaft from a MODU (Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit) do not have any sharp objects that could potentially puncture or damage the liferaft. Maintaining the integrity of the liferaft is of the highest importance for the safety and survival of those onboard. The other options, while potentially relevant, are not as critical as preventing damage to the liferaft itself.
