Deck General USCG Question #1645 (Set 52)

Which knot is suitable for hoisting an unconscious person?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option D — French bowline

The French bowline is specifically designed for hoisting an unconscious person because it creates two loops. One loop fits around the chest and the other under the legs, providing a secure, stable harness that keeps the victim in a relatively upright position while preventing them from falling out.
