1. Introduction

  1.1 Where the stability of a Coded vessel is assessed using the righting moment curve prepared to show compliance of the design with ISO 12217, this curve shall be subject to verification and, if necessary, correction, as set out below.

  1.2 ISO 12217 normally requires the stability to be assessed in the Minimum Operating Condition. However, where the Loaded Displacement Mass is more than 15% greater than the former, the stability also has to be assessed in this heavier condition.

  1.3 Where data is available for both conditions, the heavier should be used for the purposes of this Code.
