Which asset is at station 40?

• A. Jon boat and trailer
• B. 14ft rhib on trailer
• C. Jon boat on lift
• D. 20ft shallow water mud boat

Answer: (B)

Understanding asset location is about how a station inventories its boats for quick, ready-to-deploy water response. A 14-foot RHIB on a trailer is the asset assigned to station 40 because this setup offers rapid water access with minimal dock requirements: it can be quickly hitched and launched from shore, without needing a fixed boat lift or a larger slip. This aligns with a station’s need for mobility and fast deployment. The other options reflect different storage or vessel needs that would typically place those assets at other stations or in different setups: a jon boat and trailer suggests a smaller craft stored differently or at a station with different space; a jon boat on a lift requires a boat lift and dock infrastructure; a 20-foot shallow-water mud boat is larger and would usually be kept at a station with more specialized facilities.
