This International Standard specifies technical requirements for windows, portlights, hatches, deadlights and doors
on small craft of hull length up to 24 m, taking into account the type of craft, its design category, and the location of
the appliance.
The appliances considered in this International Standard are only those that are critical for the crafts
watertightness, i.e. those that could lead to flooding in case of rupture of the plate.
This International Standard is mostly intended to be used for recreational craft, but it may be used for nonrecreational
small craft of hull length up to 24 m, excluding lifeboats. However, it is not applicable to commercial or
work boats used in severe conditions.
