Question 911 Deck General
70% to passWhich of the following actions are stated in the correct order prior to loading or discharging cargo on a Ro-Ro vessel?
The correct answer is B) Lower the stern ramp, raise/open the stern door, turn on ventilation for cargo holds. This is the correct order of actions prior to loading or discharging cargo on a Ro-Ro (Roll-on/Roll-off) vessel. The stern ramp needs to be lowered first to allow vehicles and cargo to be driven on or off the vessel. Then, the stern door can be raised or opened to provide access. Finally, the ventilation for the cargo holds should be turned on to ensure proper air circulation and safety during cargo operations. The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the proper sequence of actions. For example, option A starts with turning on ventilation, which should be the last step. Option C has the stern door and ramp in the wrong order. Option D also has the sequence out of order.
