6.1

 When a deck is fitted with bulwarks such that shipped water may be trapped behind them, the bulwarks should be provided with efficient freeing ports that will ensure the deck can be effectively drained. This section is not intended to apply to inflatable boats or boats fitted with a buoyant collar, as these requirements are dealt with in other parts of the Code.
