70% to passIn painting a lifeboat following its overhaul, which parts must be painted bright red?
A
the top 2-1/2 inches of each side
B
the fuel tanks
C
the thwarts
D
the releasing gear lever
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) the releasing gear lever. The requirement to paint the releasing gear lever of a lifeboat bright red is specified in the US Coast Guard regulations for the construction, arrangement, and equipment of lifeboats. This is done to ensure the releasing gear is easily identifiable and accessible in an emergency situation. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not correspond to the specific requirement to paint the releasing gear lever red. The top 2-1/2 inches of the lifeboat's sides, the fuel tanks, and the thwarts do not need to be painted red according to the regulations.
