Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option D: All of the above.
To ensure they survive the harsh marine environment, lifebuoys must meet rigorous standards under the LSA Code. This includes drop tests from the required height, fire testing to ensure self-extinguishing properties, and flotation tests to confirm they can support a person in the water for extended periods.
