Small Boat Recommended Engineering Practices 660425
The development of BIA small boat recommended engineering standards closely follows problem areas, the objective being to find a solution that will most economically and easily modify existing practice to maintain an acceptable level of safety. A few of the specific problems for which some new recommended BIA practices offer solutions are described in such areas as electrical systems, fuel systems, compartment ventilation, steering systems, and boat capacity. The overall goal of BIA recommended practices is to enable manufacturers to build better performing and safer products for the public through pooled industry judgment.
