Bezpieczeństwo

• Release gear must never be function-tested with personnel inside unless it is a properly organised load test
• Free-fall ramp area must be kept clear/under exclusion during drills and testing
• Confirm ventilation before running the engine for checks in an enclosed boat
• Any doubt about hull structural integrity takes the boat out of service before a free-fall launch

Przegląd klasyfikacyjny

Freefall lifeboats fall under SOLAS III/20 and the LSA Code testing regime. Class attends the 5-yearly on-load release gear overhaul/load test and reviews the maker's service reports together with the drill and annual-examination log; a missing or overdue annual examination record is a common finding.
