British Flag in all her voyages, and to class the protection of that Flag national jurisdiction in all matters relating to the rights of property - But I do, at the same time, make known that by this

sailing Letter, there are

given to the said Vessel no rights of trade or navigation which are by the Laws of England confined to British Ships properly so called, and provided with certificates of Registry, which is the only legal evidence of their

title to that character; nor to exercise

any privilege of trade or navigation which

is

by the laws of England confined to the ships of any foreign Country owned and navigated by the subjects of that Country. But, inasmuch as the British laws of navigation & registry do not preclude British

Subjects

from employing ships other than

registered ships, in voyages between foreign

Countries, between which they trade, nor in

certain other cases; this sailing Letter is

granted to the said Vessel

in order

that she may be duly protected as British Property, while employed in any such unrestricted voyages. And for the more certain identification of the said Vessel, for which this sailing Letter is granted, I do hereby certify that she has decks, and __ masts; that her length, from the fore part of the main stem to the after part of her stern post abaft, is — feet English; her breadth at the broadest part is — feet English; her depth of hold is _ feet English;
