Determination of maximum rated propulsion power using maneuvering speed of small ships Part 1: Ships with hull length less than 8m (Draft)

FprEN ISO 11592-1:2015

Small craft - Determination of maximum propulsion power rating using manoeuvring speed - Part 1: Craft with a length of hull less than 8 m

This standard applies to the determination of the maximum propulsion power rating for small watercraft with a hull length of less than 8 meters. It specifies methods for evaluating manoeuvring speed and propulsion power to ensure safety and operational efficiency. The standard is intended for use by manufacturers, regulatory bodies, and testing organizations involved in the design and certification of small watercraft. The procedures outlined are based on international practices and are applicable to recreational and light commercial vessels. Compliance with this standard ensures that vessels meet safety requirements and performance criteria for their intended use.
