Q

Summarise the stability and stress information that must be provided to the master of a ship assigned load lines under ICLL.

A

-The master of every new ship shall be supplied with information to arrange
for the loading and ballasting of his ship.
-Information shall be provided to the master in a form that is approved by the
Administration or a recognised organization.
-Where any alterations are made to a ship so as to materially affect the loading
or stability information supplied to the master, amended information shall be
provided.
- ships exempt from an incline test should carry on board at all times its approved stability information together
with evidence that the information has been approved by the
Administration.
