(Revise last paragraph of Subsection 1-1-1/7, as follows. Preceding text remains unchanged.)
The Rules and Guides are published with the understanding that responsibility for stability and trim, for
reasonable handling and loading, as well as for avoidance of distributions of weight which are likely to set up
abnormally severe stresses in craft does not rest upon ABS. For craft not receiving an OE notation as indicated
in Section 1-1-3 (see 1-1-3/Table B), the design significant wave height is not to exceed the values in
3-2-2/Table 1.
