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 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. 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 document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 6185-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft.
This first edition, together with ISO 6185-1, ISO 6185-2 and ISO 6185-3, cancels and replaces ISO 6185:1982,
which has been technically revised.
ISO 6185 consists of the following parts, under the general title Inflatable boats:
⎯ Part 1: Boats with a maximum motor power rating of 4,5 kW
⎯ Part 2: Boats with a maximum motor power rating of 4,5 kW to 15 kW inclusive
⎯ Part 3: Boats with a maximum motor power rating of 15 kW and greater

Inflatable boats —
Part 4:
Boats with a hull length of between 8 m and 24 m with a motor
power rating of 15 kW and greater
WARNING — Attention is drawn to the completion process whereby structural items, for example
steering consoles, seats and superstructures, are installed by parties other than the manufacturer of
the boat. These items should be installed to comply with the relevant clauses of this part of ISO 6185
so it can be ensured that any such installations do not invalidate the original assessment.
1 Scope
This part of ISO 6185 specifies the minimum safety characteristics required for the design, materials,
manufacture and testing of rigid inflatable boats (RIBs) with a hull length of between 8 m and 24 m and with a
motor power rating of 15 kW and greater.
This part of ISO 6185 is applicable to Type IX and Type X RIBs intended for use within the operating
temperatures of −20 °C to +60 °C.
⎯ Type IX: Powered boats, fitted with a buoyancy tube covering at least 85 % of the port and starboard
sides, suitable for navigation in inshore and sheltered waters, up to and including wind force 6 Beaufort
and significant wave heights up to 2 m (design categories C and D), with a hull length of between 8 m and
24 m and with a motor power rating of 15 kW and greater.
⎯ Type X: Powered boats, fitted with a buoyancy tube covering at least 85 % of the port and starboard sides,
suitable for navigation in waters, up to wind force 8 Beaufort and significant wave heights up to 4 m
(design category B), with a hull length of between 8 m and 24 m and with a motor power rating of 75 kW
and greater.
NOTE 1 General arrangements of typical boats of Types IX and X are given in Annexes A and B, respectively.
NOTE 2 For boats with power ratings of 4,5 kW and less, refer to ISO 6185-1. For boats with power ratings of 4,5 kW
to 15 kW inclusive, refer to ISO 6185-2. For boats with a hull length of less than 8 m and power rating of 15 kW and
greater, refer to ISO 6185-3.
Boats outside these types or outside of Type IX and Type X, as defined, are outside of the scope of ISO 6185.
NOTE 3 For inflatable boats with a hull length greater than 8 m, it is suggested to use the requirements of ISO 6185-3.

ISO/DIS 6185-4:2005
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.
ISO 6185-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft.
This International Standard replaces in whole ISO 6185-1982.
This International Standard differs significantly from ISO 6185-1982 as it allows boats made from unsupported
materials whereas the latter only covered boats made from reinforced materials.
In ISO 6185, Part 4, Annexes A and B are informative.
ISO 6185 consists of the following parts, under the general title Inflatable boats:
Part 1: Boats with a maximum motor power rating of 4,5 kW
Part 2: Boats with a maximum motor power rating of 4,5 kW to 15 kW inclusive
Part 3: Boats with a maximum motor power rating of 15kW and greater
Part 4: Boats with an overall length of between 8 m and 24 m and with a motor maximum power rating of
75 kW and greater

4.2.2.5 Tear strength
Carry out the test as specified in ISO 4674, method A2. The minimum value of tear resistance, in newtons, is
given by the formula:
0,375 d (1,14 p + 0,14)
where:
d is the maximum tube diameter, in millimetres, measured within the straight sections of the buoyancy
tube section;
p is the recommended working pressure, in bars, at 20 °C.
In all cases, th
