Timber freeboards for ships having reduced type 'B' freeboards assigned ( Regulation 45(2) and (3) ) (IACS interpretation LL.33)

 Some Administrations accept that timber freeboards may be assigned to ships with reduced type 'B' freeboards, provided the timber freeboards are calculated on the basis of the ordinary type 'B' freeboard.

  Regulation 45(2) and (3) should be interpreted such that the Timber Winter mark and/or the Timber Winter North Atlantic mark are placed at the same level as the reduced type 'B' Winter mark when the computed Timber Winter mark and/or the computed Timber Winter North Atlantic mark fall below the reduced type 'B' Winter mark.
