Your vessel has lifeboats on both sides. Where is Lifeboat No. 2 located?

Correct Answer: Option C — forward of lifeboat No. 4 on the port side

Per 46 CFR 199.60, lifeboats are numbered consecutively starting from the bow, with odd numbers on the starboard side and even numbers on the port side. Therefore, Lifeboat No. 2 is the first even-numbered boat on the port side, positioned forward of the subsequent even-numbered boat, Lifeboat No. 4.
