Replaces GB/T 20896-2007
Small boat watertight or rapid water-discharge concave body
(ISO 11812.2020, IDT)
Published on 2025-10-05
Implemented on May 1, 2026
State Administration for Market Regulation
The State Administration for Standardization issued a statement.
Foreword
This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1.Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents".
Drafting.
This document replaces GB/T 20896-2007 "Watertight Stern Compartments and Quick-Drain Stern Compartments for Small Boats" and is consistent with GB/T 20896-2007.
Compared to previous versions, aside from structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.
---The terms "concave body" and "stern compartment" have been changed (see 3.6 and 3.7, 3.8 in the.2007 edition);
---Added multi-bottom concave bodies (see 3.15);
---Added requirements for engine vents installed in recesses (see 6.2);
---The concept of a concave shape to reduce the risk of water immersion has been added (see 7.2);
---Added a recessed area for the foot pedal (see 10.3);
---The data for "minor head loss" has been revised (see Table A.5, Table D.1 in the.2007 edition);
---The phrase "major head loss" has been removed (see D.3 in the.2007 edition).
This document is equivalent to ISO 11812-2020 "Watertight or rapid-drainage depressions for small boats".
The following minimal editorial changes have been made to this document.
---Incorporates the amendments to ISO 11812.2020/Amd.1.2024, indicated by vertical text in the margin of the relevant clauses.
The double lines (‖) are marked.

The release history of this document and the document it replaces is as follows.
---First published in.2007 as GB/T 20896-2007;
---This is the first revision.
Small boat watertight or rapid water-discharge concave body
1 Scope
This document specifies the watertightness and rapid sluice gate designation for watertight and rapid sluice gates and the stern compartment on small boats with a hull length not exceeding 24m, as well as the procedures for sluice gate operation.
Requirements for space and threshold height, etc. (see reference [1]).
This document covers recesses located on the raised component.
This document does not specify the size, shape, or location of the recess or stern compartment. This document only considers gravity drainage, not drainage via pumps or...
Other methods of draining water.
This document only considers the normal operating conditions of the small boat; the concave body problem of unattended small boats is not within the scope of this document.
This document does not guarantee that water in watertight or rapidly draining recesses or stern compartments will not affect ISO 12217-1, ISO 12217-2, and
ISO 12217-3 covers the stability and buoyancy of small boats.
