70% to pass

Where on your vessel shall the recharge for each self-contained breathing apparatus be carried?

A Where they can be readily found
B Emergency gear locker
C The same location as the equipment it reactivates
D Bridge or pilothouse area
AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) The same location as the equipment it reactivates. The reasoning behind this is that the recharge for each self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) should be stored in the same location as the SCBA equipment it is meant to reactivate. This ensures that the recharge is readily available and easily accessible when the SCBA needs to be used, which is typically during emergency situations. The other options, while reasonable, do not align with the regulatory requirement to store the recharge in the same location as the SCBA.
