Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www .iso .org/
iso/ foreword .html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft, in collaboration with
the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 464, Small craft, in
accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 8666:2016), of which it constitutes a
minor revision. The changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— the document has been aligned to the latest edition of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, resulting in
the addition of Clause 2, Normative references, and the renumbering of the remaining clauses; all
cross-references have been accordingly updated;
— the “allowance for the maximum mass of optional equipment and fittings not included in the
manufacturer’s basic outfit” has been moved from 6.6 (Maximum load, former 5.6) to 7.8 (Maximum
load condition, former 6.8).
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www .iso .org/ members .html.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non­governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see www .iso .org/
iso/ foreword .html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft, in collaboration with
the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 464, Small craft, in
accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 8666:2016), of which it constitutes a
minor revision. The changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— the document has been aligned to the latest edition of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2, resulting in
the addition of Clause 2, Normative references, and the renumbering of the remaining clauses; all
cross-references have been accordingly updated;
— the “allowance for the maximum mass of optional equipment and fittings not included in the
manufacturer’s basic outfit” has been moved from 6.6 (Maximum load, former 5.6) to 7.8 (Maximum
load condition, former 6.8).
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www .iso .org/ members .html.

Measurements shall be established with the craft at rest at the maximum load waterline/reference
waterline, WL , unless otherwise stated.
ref
5.2 Longitudinal
5.2.1 General
The lengths of a craft shall be measured parallel to the maximum load waterline/reference waterline
and craft centreline as the distance between two vertical planes, perpendicular to the centreplane of
the craft.
5.2.2 Maximum length, L
max
The maximum length (L ) shall be measured in accordance with 5.2.1, one plane tangent through the
max
foremost part and the other through the aftermost part of the craft.
This length includes all structural and integral parts of the craft, such as stems or sterns, bulwarks, and
hull/deck joints.
This length includes parts which are normally fixed, such as fixed spars, bowsprits, pulpits at either
end of the craft, stemhead fittings, rudders, outboard motor brackets, outdrives, waterjets, and any
propulsion units extending beyond the transom, diving and boarding platforms, rubbing strakes, and
permanent fenders.
Outdrives, waterjets, other propulsion units, and all movable parts shall be measured in their normal
operating condition to their maximum lengthwise extension when the craft is underway.
This length excludes the following:
— outboard motors;
— any other type of equipment that can be detached without the use of tools.
See Figure 1 for monohull measurements and Figure 2 for multihull measurements.
5.2.3 Length of the hull, L
H
The length of the hull (L ) shall be measured in accordance with 5.2.1, one plane passing through the
H
foremost part of the craft and the other through the aftermost part of the craft.
This length includes all structural and integral parts of the craft, such as stems or sterns, bulwarks, and
hull/deck joints.
This length excludes removable parts that can be detached in a non-destructive manner and without
affecting the structural integrity of the craft, e.g. spars, bowsprits, pulpits at either end of the craft,
stemhead fittings, rudders, outdrives, outboard motors and their mounting brackets and plates, diving
platforms, boarding platforms, rubbing strakes, and fenders if they do not act as hydrostatic support
when the watercraft is at rest or underway.
With multihull craft, the length of each hull shall be measured individually. The length of the hull, L ,
H
shall be taken as the longest of the individual measurements.
See Figure 1 for monohull measurements and Figure 2 for multihull measurements.
