This guideline is aimed at privately owned small craft, located in marinas and offered for use as short-term accommodation without the craft leaving its berth (‘Static Charter’). This note has been developed as a global industry guideline to provide support to the marine industry and regulatory stakeholders alike for the development of operational frameworks for Static Charter in marinas.

ICOMIA Standard 51 – 18: Acceptance Criteria Guidelines for the Finish and Appearance for Super Yacht Coatings. This follows on from past documentation on acceptance criteria for coatings, including ISO 11347. This brand-new document takes a novel approach to the development of acceptance criteria: rather than providing ‘Pass/Fail’ values it will instead serve as a structured guide to assist contractual parties in constructing their own project specific, fit-for-purpose acceptance criteria document. This document takes a high-level approach to the development of acceptance criteria: instead of providing ‘Pass/Fail’ values, it will not include reference to values. It is purely a guideline for companies/contractual parties/consultants on how to create their own acceptance criteria – offering a technical 'Aide-mémoire'. The Acceptance Criteria Guidelines for the Finish and Appearance for Super Yacht Coatings is designed to allow the creation of mutually-agreed, project-specific criteria, and should be used in the pre-contract stage. Paint criteria parameters and Pass/Fail values may consider any of the following client requirements: materials, products to be used, equipment, processes, timelines, application facilities and specific paint system variables. In each case, the 2018 ICOMIA guidelines provide a methodology for determining appropriate values for each requirement. Annex I offers a template for paint acceptance criteria.
