🔍 Key Concepts

• Gross tonnage vs. net tonnage and what each is intended to measure • Which spaces are considered non-revenue / non-cargo spaces on a vessel • Regulatory treatment of crew spaces, navigation spaces, and stores in tonnage calculations

💭 Think About

• Think about the purpose of net tonnage. What does it try to represent in terms of the ship’s earning capacity? • For each space listed, ask: "Is this space available for cargo or passengers, or is it serving another function?" • Consider which of these types of spaces are typically exempted or deducted under tonnage rules to avoid penalizing safety and operational areas.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which spaces are classified as accommodation and service spaces (crew use, navigation, etc.) in tonnage rules. • Check whether boatswain’s stores are treated as cargo space or as a necessary ship’s working space. • Confirm how a chart room is categorized: is it a navigation/operational space or a revenue-earning space?
