Every Cayman Islands passenger ship, regardless of size, and every Cayman Islands cargo ship having a length of twenty-four metres and upwards, shall have on board such information about the ship's stability as may be prescribed.
The information required under subsection (1), a copy of which shall be sent to the Chief Executive Officer, shall be based on the determination of the ship's stability by means of an inclining test of the ship but the Chief Executive Officer may allow the information to be based on a similar determination of the stability of a sister ship.
Where a ship proceeds or attempts to proceed to sea without having on board the information as required by subsections (1) and (2), the owner and the master each commit an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine of three thousand dollars.
