Freeboards.
Rule CII.—Computation of Freeboard.
When the Assigning Authority is satisfied that the foregoing requirements are fulfilled, the Summer freeboard may be computed from the Table for Tankers ; all corrections except those for flush-deck steamers, detached superstructures, excess sheer, and winter voyages across the North Atlantic are to be made in accordance with Part III of the Rules.
Rule CIII.—Deduction for Detached Superstructures.
When the total effective length of superstructure is less than 1·0 L, the deduction is a percentage of that for a superstructure of length 1·0 L, and is obtained from the following table :—
Total Effective Length of Superstructures.
| 0 | ·1 L | ·2 L | ·3 L | ·4 L | ·5 L | ·6 L | ·7 L | ·8 L | ·9 L | 1·0 L | |

Rule CIV.—Deduction for Excess Sheer.
Where the sheer is greater than the standard, the correction for excess sheer (see Rule LVII of Part III, Load Lines for Steamers) is deducted from the freeboard for all tankers. Rule LIX of Part III does not apply except that the maximum deduction for excess sheer is 1½ inches at 100 feet and increases at the rate of 1½ inches for each additional 100 feet in the length of the ship.
Rule CV.—Winter North Atlantic Freeboard.
The minimum freeboard for voyages across the North Atlantic, north of latitude 36° N., during the winter months, is the Winter Freeboard plus an addition at a rate of 1 inch per 100 feet in length.
