Ponte / Non ponte - Definition

hey,

I am preparing a project for French administration. I need to know which is the difference between a "ponte" or "non ponte" boat. Although knowing that is related with the height of the deck, and consequently with the freeboard value; i have not found a clear definition of those both concepts...

If anybody has any information, I would be very gratefull of read it.

Thanks!

Le bateau ponté is a boat that has been decked. See similar thread by you.

Freeboard - "ponte"/"non ponte"

I would take that to mean a bateau non-ponté is an open boat with no deck.

The other thread is at Freeboard - "ponte"/"non ponte" -
let's let the discussion continue there so it's not split between two duplicate threads.
