Required equipment for any pleasure craft includes:

A GPS system
A reboarding device for crafts with 0.5 meters of freeboard
A fishing rod per person
A cellphone with a waterproof case

The correct answer is: A reboarding device for crafts with 0.5 meters of freeboard

The required equipment for any pleasure craft varies depending on the size and type of watercraft, but generally includes safety gear such as life jackets, a bailer or bilge pump, a sound signalling device, and visual distress signals. A GPS system, fishing rods, and cellphones are not typically required for pleasure crafts and are not considered essential safety gear. While a GPS system may be helpful for navigation, it is not required. A reboarding device, specifically one designed for crafts with 0.5 meters of freeboard, is essential for safely reboarding a capsized vessel. This makes option B the correct answer.
