What should the vessel operator tell everyone on board before departing?

  1. The weather forecast

  2. Where to find the PFDs and visual distress signals

  3. A good joke

  4. The history of the vessel

The correct answer is: Where to find the PFDs and visual distress signals

The vessel operator should tell everyone on board where to find the PFDs and visual distress signals before departing. This is essential safety information that every person on board should know in case of an emergency. A may be important, but it is not as crucial as knowing the location of safety equipment. C may be a nice way to relax and enjoy the trip, but it is not necessary for the safety of the passengers. D may be interesting, but it is not relevant to the safety of the passengers.
