    A ship which is not normally engaged on international voyages but

number of persons less than the total number stated in the Special Trade

Passenger Ship Certificate and is, in consequence,  in accordance with the

other life-saving appliances than that stated in the Certificate, an annex

may be issued by the Administration or any other person or organization

referred to in Rule 5 of the present Agreement.

    (2) This annex shall state that in the circumstances there is no

infringement of the provisions of these Rules. It shall be annexed to the

Certificate and shall be substituted for it insofar as the life-saving

appliances are concerned. It shall be valid only for the particular voyage

for which it is issued.

    (i) Lifeboats on each side of such aggregate capacity as will

accommodate half the total number of persons on board.

lifeboats by liferafts of the same total capacity so however that there

shall never be less than sufficient lifeboats on each side of the ship to

accommodate 35 per cent of all on board;

    (ii) liferafts of sufficient aggregate capacity to accommodate 10 per

to stow the liferafts carried in accordance with sub-paragraph (c) (ii) it

may permit a reduction in the number of lifeboats.

    Provided that:

    (a) the number of lifeboats shall, in the case of ships of 58 metres

Column C of the Table in Regulation 28 of Chapter III, the Administration

shall endeavour to ensure that liferafts capable of being launched from

approved launching devices are provided of such aggregate capacity as will

equal the difference between the capacity of the lifeboats carried on

ship.

    (5) For the purpose of these Rules, Regulation 27 (c) (vii) of Chapter

III of the Convention shall be replaced by the following:

    The Administration may permit individual ships or classes of ships

with short international voyage certificates to proceed on voyages in

excess of 600 miles but not exceeding 1,200 miles, if they carry lifeboats

which provide for 70 per cent of the persons on board and otherwise comply

with the provisions of this paragraph.

            Rule 18 - Stowage and Handling of Lifeboats, Liferafts and BuoyantApparatus

    For the purpose of these Rules, Regulation 29 (n) (i) of Chapter III

    In special trade passenger ships engaged on international voyages

which are not short international voyages, in which there are carried

lifeboats and liferafts in accordance with sub-paragraph (1) (i) of Rule

17, there shall be provided approved launching devices sufficient in

number in the opinion of the Administration to enable that number of

liferafts which, together with the lifeboats, is required in accordance

with that sub-paragraph to provide accommodation for all on board, to be

put into the water loaded with the number of persons they are permitted to

accommodate, in not more than thirty minutes in calm conditions. Approved

launching devices so provided shall, so far as practicable, be distributed

equally on each side of the ship and there shall never be less than one

such device on each side of the ship and there shall never be less than

one such device on each side. Provided that the Administration may permit

launching devices of liferafts carried in accordance with sub-paragraph

(1) (i) of Rule 17 to be dispensed with if it is satisfied that passengers

will not need to descend more than 9 metres (30 feet) from the embarkation

deck to the water. Such liferafts shall not be stowed in the ship at a

greater height than 18 metres (60 feet) above the water.

    No launching devices need be provided for the additional liferafts

required by sub-paragraph (1) (ii) of Rule 17 for 10 per cent of all on
