Minimum freeboards ( Regulation 40 )

 When the geometric freeboard calculated in accordance with paragraph (1) is less than the minimum freeboard allowed by paragraph (2) of this Regulation, the corrections for winter freeboard and Winter North Atlantic freeboard should be added to the allowed minimum summer freeboard and not to the calculated value. Similarly, the allowance for fresh water should be a deduction from the allowed minimum summer freeboard.
