• construction and structural elements;
• correct installation of the propulsion system;
• maneuvering characteristics and stability behavior;
• operational efficiency of all devices and installations;

VOLUNTARY CERTIFICATE, issued at the owner’s request, for vessels from 2.5 to 24 meters in deck length, with engine power below 75 kW – based on the resolution of the Presidium of the Management Board of PZMWiNW dated October 24, 2007, taking into account the provisions of Article 27, points 1–4 of the Act of December 21, 2000 on Inland Navigation, as amended.

MANDATORY CERTIFICATE, for vessels with engine power of 75 kW or more, subject by law to technical inspections required to obtain a Certificate of Seaworthiness, i.e. a document authorizing the vessel to operate, issued by the Inland Navigation Authority competent for the vessel’s home port.
