1.2.3.
Maximum number of persons and load capacity
The directive requires that for each craft a maximum number of persons is defined who should
be on board when the boat is in the service area it was conceived for. This yacht is designed for
the ocean navigation, i.e. for extended voyages between ports.
Therefore the recommendation is the following:
Voyages of several days duration the maximum number of persons should greater than the
number of berths onboard.
This design category considers a maximum wave height including 4 m and a wind speed
including 8 Beaufort, under the precondition that:
•
the crew has sufficient nautical knowledge and experience;
•
the construction of the boat is suitable for the intended weather conditions and its equipment
is well maintained.
Life jackets must be provided for all persons on board. The inflatable
life raft should have a capacity of 8 persons.
Put on personal safety equipment (life jacket etc.) during the trip!
The defined maximum number of persons may not be exceeded. No
matter how many persons are on board, the total weight of persons
and equipment may never exceed the recommended maximum load
capacity.
The stability characteristics of the craft were designed for the
specified weights and the intended arrangement and storage of the
additional load.
The following notes should be paid attention:
•
the crew members should be trained sufficiently;
•
the boat should not be loaded beyond the limit recommended by the manufacturer;
•
water in the bilge should be drained to the greatest extent possible;
•
stability is reduced by heavy loads above the centre of gravity;
•
in case of rough weather, the hatches, locker seats and companionways must be kept
shut to keep the risk of water penetration as low as possible;
•
stability is reduced, if davits are used for towing or for lifting heavy weights;
•
breaking waves are dangerous and may influence the stability of the yacht.
Weather conditions under which breaking waves could approach the
boat abeam are to be avoided. Voyages should be planned in
consideration of weather forecasts.
