13.2.5 Immersion Suits
13.2.5.1 One approved immersion suit should be provided for each person onboard. Due consideration should be given to the provision of appropriate immersion/thermal protection for children carried on board; these should be of the insulated type.
However, on application to the Administration, the non-insulated type may be acceptable for Short Range Yachts dependant on the area of operation.
However, these need not be provided if the vessel is operating in water of surface temperatures of 20°C or more.
