NOTES:

1. Each liferaft equipped for 13 persons or more must carry two of these items.
2. Not required for boats of self-bailing design.
3. Not required for inflated or rigid-inflated rescue boats.
4. A hatchet counts towards this requirement in rigid rescue boats.
5. Oars are not required on a free-fall lifeboat; a unit of oars means the number of oars specified by
the boat manufacturer.
6. Rescue boats may substitute buoyant paddles for oars, as specified by the manufacturer.
7. Not required for a rigid rescue boat.
