  • “This notation will be assigned to Short-Range Yachts with service area restriction G2A and in accordance with the MCA Large Commercial Yacht Code, MSN 1792(M) requirements for Short-Range Yachts.”

The purpose of the +100A1 SSC SRY notation is to cover yachts intended to be built as a Short Range Yacht under the MCA’s Large Commercial Yacht Code. A Short Range Yacht is restricted to operating within 60 nautical miles of a safe haven, as identified by the G2A service area restriction notation. The restricted operation with a forecast or actual wind force 4 on the Beaufort scale for a motor yacht and force 6 on the Beaufort scale for a sailing yacht is excluded from the LR Rules, as are other operational requirements.
