What must boats over 6m and up to 9m have?

  1. A buoyant heaving line at least 15m in length or an approved lifebuoy with a line

  2. At least two lifebuoys

  3. A GPS and radio communication system

  4. An on-board bathroom facility

The correct answer is: A buoyant heaving line at least 15m in length or an approved lifebuoy with a line

Boats over 6m and up to 9m must have a buoyant heaving line at least 15m in length or an approved lifebuoy with a line. This is required to assist anyone who falls overboard and needs to be pulled back onto the boat. Option B is incorrect because only one lifebuoy is required for boats of this size. Option C is incorrect because while a GPS and radio communication system may be helpful, it is not a requirement for boats of this size. Option D is incorrect because an on-board bathroom facility is not relevant to safety regulations and is not required for boats of this size.
