You may find answers within the Sailing Fundamentals text or Federal Requirements for Boaters booklet.  \nIf you have any questions about the homework, your instructor will answer them in class. We recommend you bring a jacket, sunscreen, and please NO BLACK SOLED SHOES please!  \nSAFETY EQUIPMENT-FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS  \nState Registration or Federal documentation  \nOne approved type I, II, III , V PFD for each passenger or crew  \nOne type IV throwable cushion  \nFire Extinguisher Less than 26' ( 1) B-1 26' to under 40' (2) B-1 , or 1 B-2 40' to 65' (3) B-1 , 1 B-1 and 1 B-2  \nVentilation  \nBackfire Flame Arrester (gasoline engines only)  \nRunning Lights if underway in reduced visibility  \nVisual Distress Signals (flares) 16' and up 3 day and 3 night 39’ and up!

A Stand-On vessel must maintain her course and speed until the risk of possible collision is over.  \nA \"burdened vessel\" shall be referred to as Give Way. The Give Way vessel must alter her course and/or speed to give way to a Stand-On vessel.  \nRules  \nWhen two vessels are approaching each other on collision courses, one of them shall keep out of the way of the other as follows:  \nUnder Sail  \nWhen each is on a different tack, the starboard tack boat shall Stand On, and the port tack boat shall Give Way.  \nWhen both are on the same tack, the vessel to leeward shall Stand On, the vessel to windward shall Give Way.  \nIf a vessel on port tack sees a vessel approaching, and cannot be sure of the approaching vessel's tack, she shall Give Way.  \nA vessel overtaking any other vessel shall give way to the vessel being overtaken.  \nUnder Power  \nA vessel under power will Give Way to a vessel under sail unless the powering vessel is restricted in its ability to maneuver, or if it is being overtaken.  \nIf two powering vessels are approaching each other on intersecting courses, the vessel to port shall Give Way to the vessel to starboard.  \nA vessel under power overtaking another vessel shall Give Way to the vessel being overtaken.  \nKNOTS  \nA good knot is:  \n1. Easy to tie.  \n2. Performs its function  \n3. Easy to untie  \nBowline  \nProvides a temporary non-slipping loop.  \nUsed to bend a line to a spar or rope.  \nFigure 8 Knot Also called a stopper knot.

Used to secure the clove hitch if docked for more than a few minutes.  \nFIGURE 8 MAN OVERBOARD PROCEDURE  \n1. Announce \"MAN OVERBOARD\" and get all crew on deck.  \n2. Skipper should immediately:  \n• Assign a spotter to point at and keep constant eye contact with the victim.  \n• Have throwable cushion tossed to victim.  \n• Have boat headed to a beam or broad reach.  \n• Are you above or below victim?  \n• Fall off to a broad reach or tack back to victim.  \n•  Do not jibe in this maneuver.  \n3. After sailing away far enough to prepare crew and equipment to retrieve victim, the skipper should tack the boa","cbCaioBYzQVJTPtR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioBYzQVJTPtR","pdf",5265029,9,"English","# ASA BASIC KEELBOAT SAMPLE TEST\n## Safety Equipment - Federal Requirements\n## ASA Recommended Equipment (Additional)\n## Rules of the Road\n## Knots\n## Figure 8 Man Overboard Procedure\n## Naming Parts of Sail, Boat, and Rigging","[{\"question\":\"What safety equipment is required under federal requirements for passengers or crew?\",\"answer\":\"It specifies one approved PFD type I, II, III, or V for each passenger or crew member and one type IV throwable cushion.
