11.2.2 Multihull vessels

 Generally, the requirements of Section 11.2.1 for a monohull vessel should apply to a multihull motor vessel carrying 16 or more persons or operating in Area Category 0 and 1, with 7 or more persons. Damage and inverted stability requirements for multihull sailing vessels are contained in Section 11.10. If a multihull vessel is of unconventional design or cannot meet the damage criteria given in Sections 11.2.1.1 and 11.2.1.2, the results of the calculations should be submitted to the Administration for assessment.
