Summary:Lifeboat is one of important parts of the ship where without lifeboat, the ship not allowed to sail. Nowadays there were many problems on lifeboat releasing and handling system that involve injuries and fatalities, lifeboat should save people live but unfortunately lifeboat were cause loss of live on board ship during lifeboat operation. This study objective is to examine the factor and problem of lifeboat releasing operation. The factor, problem and activity were been highlight as the reference and guidelines for seafarer to prevent accident and problem during lifeboat operation. Several way and recommendation to minimize the problem is stated based on the factor determined. The factors have been examine are the design of lifeboat releasing system, maintenance of lifeboat and the training drill of lifeboat for this study and each relation was analysis by descriptive and qualitative in SPSS software. The mean and Pearson correlation tool were used to analysis the factor in this study. As the conclusion, the design of lifeboat releasing system show small relationship top lifeboat operation while lifeboat maintenance and training drill lifeboat show the strong relation to lifeboat releasing operation.
