load line- air pipes

[jollyricard]

Dear ALL,

I have a boat used to recovery oil; the lenght of the boat is 16 m; In this case I think that Load line convention is not applicable, therefore how must I put air pipes on a superstructure deck? what is the minimum height?


many thanks in advance and best regards

If she is not ILLC66 then you will most probably have national freeboard issued by flag authorities. Thus you need to refer to national regulations.

Also you will most probably have to prepare a T&S booklet and the real issue with air pipes will be respecting criterions within down flooding angle range.
