28. LIFEBOATS, LIFE RAFTS AND BUOYANT AP- PARATUS-Each set of davits shall have a boat of Class 1 attached to it.
If the lifeboats attached to davits do not provide accom- modation for 60 per cent of all persons on board, or the minimum cubic capacity specified in Column (E) of Table No. 7, whichever is less, additional lifeboats of Class 1 or Class 2 shall be placed on board to make up the deficiency.
If the boats so provided do not provide accommodation for 60 per cent of all persons on board, additional lifeboats of Class 1 or Class 2, or approved life rafts or other approved buoyant apparatus shall be provided so that the accommoda- tion provided by the lifeboats, life rafts and buoyant ap- paratus shall be sufficient for 60 per cent of all persons on board.
The stowage of the additional boats shall be decided by the Government Marine Surveyor.
