12.1.1 General

 A sailing vessel required to be provided with an approved Stability Information Booklet, other than a vessel assessed in conjunction with Section 11.8.4, should have a freeboard mark placed on each side of the hull at the longitudinal position of the longitudinal centre of flotation for the maximum draught at which the stability of the vessel has been determined. In no case should this draught be greater than the draught corresponding to the maximum displacement for which the scantlings have been approved.
