In Part of this book, we examined the general Class requirements pertaining to vessels intended to operate in extreme low temperature environments (i.e., in Arctic or polar latitudes). In this Part 3, we will discuss the general requirements for ship designers and vessel owners/operators seeking optional ice strengthening class notations. This Chap. 11 provides important guidance on the structural requirements for vessels seeking (or are in the process of being assigned) a Polar Class (PC) notation. Chapter 12 concerns the machinery requirements for PC vessels based on based on IACS UR I1, I2, and I3. Chapter 13 sets out the requirements for enhanced PC notations, and Chap. 14 provides the requirements for vessels intending to navigate in first-year ice. In the final chapter of this Part 3, Chap. 15 examines the Class requirements associated with the Baltic Ice Class notation available to vessels intending to navigate the Baltic Sea during the winter season as provisioned in the 1985 Joint Finnish Swedish Ice Class Rules.
