Scope

This standard applies to ship's boats that are used on inland navigation vessels for multi-purpose applications such as transporting a limited number of people or light cargo in small quantities over short distances. The ship's boat may also be used as a lifesaving vessel as long as no special lifesaving equipment is specified for the area of use and - if used as lifesaving appliances on passenger vessels - as long as the relevant traffic rules are observed. Ship's boats are also used for the recovery of people and equipment.
