A The time it took to lower the boat
B Any inoperative equipment and the corrective action taken
C The name of the lifeboatman in charge of each lifeboat
D The location of the vessel at the time of the drill
AI Explanation

The correct answer is B) Any inoperative equipment and the corrective action taken. The reason this is the correct answer is that after conducting a boat drill on a mobile offshore drilling unit, the Master or person in charge is required to enter any inoperative equipment and the corrective action taken in the logbook. This is a regulatory requirement under 46 CFR 109.213, which states that the master or person in charge must ensure that the results of the drill, including any problems encountered and the corrective action taken, are recorded in the unit's official logbook. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not address the specific regulatory requirement to record inoperative equipment and corrective actions in the logbook after a boat drill.
