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

A buoyant heaving line at least 15m in length or an approved lifebuoy with a line
At least two lifebuoys
A GPS and radio communication system
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.
