5.2.1.1 External doors in deckhouses and superstructures that give access to spaces below the weather deck are to be weathertight and door openings should have coaming heights of at least:

Location | Unrestricted Yachts | Short Range Yachts

Location B The door is in an exposed forward facing location aft of the forward quarter length.

Location C The door is in a protected location aft of the forward quarter length, or an unprotected door on the first tier deck above the weather deck.

5.2.1.2 Weathertight doors should be arranged to open outwards and when located in a houseside, be hinged at the forward edge. Alternative closing arrangements will be considered providing it can be demonstrated that the efficiency of the closing arrangements and their ability to prevent the ingress of water will not impair the safety of the vessel.

Location | Unrestricted Yachts | Short Range Yachts

5.2.1.4 Coaming height, construction and securing standards for weathertight doors which are provided for use only when the vessel is in port or at anchor in calm sheltered waters and are locked closed when the vessel is at sea, may be considered individually.
