Small craft - Watertight cockpits and quick-draining cockpits (ISO 11812:2001)

This International Standard specifies requirements for cockpits and recesses to be designated either as “watertight”
or as “quick-draining” on small craft of hull length up to 24 m.
It does not set requirements for the size and shape of a cockpit or recess, nor when or where it shall be used. It
only considers draining by gravity, and not by pumping or other methods.
NOTE 1 The term “quick-draining cockpit” has been chosen to differentiate from the common understanding of “self-draining
cockpit” where water may be drained overboard in certain conditions, but without specified draining speed, height of bottom or
sill, etc.
NOTE 2 Examples of single-plane cockpit bottoms are given in informative annex A.

Kleine Wasserfahrzeuge - Wasserdichte und schnell-lenzende Plichten (ISO 11812:2001)

Petits navires - Cockpits étanches et cockpits rapidement autovideurs (ISO 11812:2001)

La présente Norme internationale spécifie les exigences applicables aux cockpits et aux cavités pour qu'ils soient
qualifiés soit d'«étanches», soit de «rapidement autovideurs», sur les navires de longueur de coque inférieure ou
égale à 24 m.
Elle n'établit aucune exigence relative à la taille ou à la forme des cockpits ou des cavités, ni ne spécifie quand et
où ils doivent être utilisés. Elle prend en compte uniquement la vidange par gravité et non par pompage ou par
d'autres méthodes.
NOTE 1 Le terme «cockpit rapidement autovideur» a été choisi pour marquer la différence avec la notion habituelle de
«cockpit autovideur» où l'eau peut être évacuée à l'extérieur dans certaines conditions, mais sans spécification sur la vitesse de
vidange, la hauteur du fond ou des surbaux, etc.
NOTE 2 Des exemples de fond de cockpit en un seul plan sont donnés dans l'annexe informative A.

Mala plovila - Vodotesni krmarjevi prostori in krmarjevi prostori s hitrim odvodnjavanjem (ISO 11812:2001)

Ta mednarodni standard določa zahteve za krmarjeve prostore in kabine, ki so označeni kot »vodotesni« ali kot »s hitrim odvajanjem« v malih plovilih z dolžino trupa do 24 m.
Ne določa zahtev glede velikosti in oblike krmarjevega prostora/kabine ali glede časa/načina njegove/njene uporabe. Obravnava odvodnjavanje zgolj na podlagi težnosti in ne na podlagi črpanja ali drugih metod.
OPOMBA 1: Izraz »krmarjevi prostori s hitrim odvodnjavanjem« je bil izbran za namene razlikovanja od splošnega izraza »krmarjevi prostori s samodejnim odvodnjavanjem«, pri katerem se voda v nekaterih pogojih lahko odvaja čez krov, vendar brez opredeljene hitrosti odvajanja, višine dna ali praga itd.
OPOMBA 2: Primeri enodelnega dna krmarjevih prostorov so podani v informativnem dodatku A.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 11812 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft.

Small craft — Watertight cockpits and quick-draining cockpits
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for cockpits and recesses to be designated either as “watertight”
or as “quick-draining” on small craft of hull length up to 24 m.
It does not set requirements for the size and shape of a cockpit or recess, nor when or where it shall be used. It
only considers draining by gravity, and not by pumping or other methods.
NOTE 1 The term “quick-draining cockpit” has been chosen to differentiate from the common understanding of “self-draining
cockpit” where water may be drained overboard in certain conditions, but without specified draining speed, height of bottom or
sill, etc.
NOTE 2 Examples of single-plane cockpit bottoms are given in informative annex A.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of
this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these
publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to
investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For
undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and IEC

NOTE Cockpits are normally designed for accommodation of people but, for the purpose of this International Standard, the
term "cockpit” will be used either for a proper cockpit or for any recess. This means that
 bulwarks may create a large cockpit,
 open boats may effectively comprise a cockpit which includes nearly all the boat,
 cockpit(s) may be situated anywhere in the boat, and
 a cockpit may open aft to the sea.
3.9
watertight cockpit or recess
cockpit or recess which satisfies the requirements of this International Standard for watertightness and sill heights,
but not those for drainage
3.10
quick-draining cockpit or recess
cockpit with characteristics and draining capacity which fulfil all the requirements of this International Standard for
one or several design categories
NOTE According to its characteristics, a cockpit may be considered quick-draining for one design category, but maybe not
for a higher category.
3.11
cockpit sole
essentially horizontal surface(s) of the cockpit on which people normally stand
3.12
cockpit bottom
lowest surface of the cockpit sole where water collects before being drained
NOTE 1 Devices raising the standing level(s) from the rigid part of the cockpit sole, e.g. grating, stands, bridge decks, are not
considered as part of the cockpit bottom.
NOTE 2 The cockpit bottom is considered to comprise only one plane. A cockpit bottom with several levels is considered
according to annex B.
3.13
bridge deck
area just outside the companionway opening and above the cockpit bottom, onto which people normally step
before entering the accommodation
3.14
closing appliance

3.15
cockpit water-retention height
h
C
height of the water contained in the cockpit measured between the cockpit bottom and the point of overflow
outboard, the boat being upright, at rest and fully loaded
NOTE 1 This height corresponds to the lowest point where the overflow area, expressed in square metres, is
> 0,005 L B , and is usually the lowest point of the cockpit coaming.
H max
NOTE 2 For assessing h , every closing appliance, including the companionway door(s) is assumed to be closed.

3.21
washboards
closing appliance for companionway opening made of several mobile boards that, when closed, are stacked one on
top of each other
NOTE 1 This is a very frequent device on sailing monohulls.
NOTE 2 Boards are added as the weather worsens to constitute a higher sill.
3.22
sill
barrier above which water in the cockpit may enter companionway openings and downflood the boat
NOTE The lids to cockpit lockers or any opening other than the companionway opening, and leading into non-quick-draining
parts of the boat are not considered to be sills if the closing appliance covering them fulfils the watertightness requirements of
clause 9.
3.23

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 11812 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft.
Annexes B, C, D and E form a normative part of this International Standard.
Annex A is for information only.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 11812:2001(E)

Small craft — Watertight cockpits and quick-draining cockpits
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for cockpits and recesses to be designated either as “watertight”
or as “quick-draining” on small craft of hull length up to 24 m.
It does not set requirements for the size and shape of a cockpit or recess, nor when or where it shall be used. It
only considers draining by gravity, and not by pumping or other methods.
NOTE 1 The term “quick-draining cockpit” has been chosen to differentiate from the common understanding of “self-draining
cockpit” where water may be drained overboard in certain conditions, but without specified draining speed, height of bottom or
sill, etc.
NOTE 2 Examples of single-plane cockpit bottoms are given in informative annex A.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of
this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these
publications do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to
investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For
undated references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and IEC
maintain registers of currently valid International Standards.

NOTE Cockpits are normally designed for accommodation of people but, for the purpose of this International Standard, the
term "cockpit” will be used either for a proper cockpit or for any recess. This means that
 bulwarks may create a large cockpit,
 open boats may effectively comprise a cockpit which includes nearly all the boat,
 cockpit(s) may be situated anywhere in the boat, and
 a cockpit may open aft to the sea.
3.9
watertight cockpit or recess
cockpit or recess which satisfies the requirements of this International Standard for watertightness and sill heights,
but not those for drainage
3.10
quick-draining cockpit or recess
cockpit with characteristics and draining capacity which fulfil all the requirements of this International Standard for
one or several design categories
NOTE According to its characteristics, a cockpit may be considered quick-draining for one design category, but maybe not
for a higher category.
3.11
cockpit sole
essentially horizontal surface(s) of the cockpit on which people normally stand
3.12
cockpit bottom
lowest surface of the cockpit sole where water collects before being drained
NOTE 1 Devices raising the standing level(s) from the rigid part of the cockpit sole, e.g. grating, stands, bridge decks, are not
considered as part of the cockpit bottom.
NOTE 2 The cockpit bottom is considered to comprise only one plane. A cockpit bottom with several levels is considered
according to annex B.
3.13
bridge deck
area just outside the companionway opening and above the cockpit bottom, onto which people normally step
before entering the accommodation
3.14
closing appliance
device used to cover an opening in the cockpit, hull or superstructures
EXAMPLE Hatch, window, door, engine cover, etc.
3.15
cockpit water-retention height
h
C
height of the water contained in the cockpit measured between the cockpit bottom and the point of overflow
outboard, the boat being upright, at rest and fully loaded
NOTE 1 This height corresponds to the lowest point where the overflow area, expressed in square metres, is
> 0,005 L B , and is usually the lowest point of the cockpit coaming.
H max
NOTE 2 For assessing h , every closing appliance, including the companionway door(s) is assumed to be closed.

 a part of the cockpit allowing direct discharge overboard,
 scuppers and freeing port,
 etc.
3.19
companionway opening
opening giving way to accommodation
NOTE There may be several companionway openings.
3.20
companionway door
door or closing appliance intended to close a companionway opening
3.21
washboards
closing appliance for companionway opening made of several mobile boards that, when closed, are stacked one on
top of each other
NOTE 1 This is a very frequent device on sailing monohulls.
NOTE 2 Boards are added as the weather worsens to constitute a higher sill.
3.22
sill
barrier above which water in the cockpit may enter companionway openings and downflood the boat
NOTE The lids to cockpit lockers or any opening other than the companionway opening, and leading into non-quick-draining
parts of the boat are not considered to be sills if the closing appliance covering them fulfils the watertightness requirements of
clause 9.
