ISO 10240:2004(E)
Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 10240 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 188, Small craft.
This second edition replaces the first edition (ISO 10240:1995), which has been technically revised.

Introduction
This International Standard sets requirements for the contents of an owner's manual. If the manual is not read,
its purpose of providing information to the user is lost.
The boat builder must ensure that the manual has been given to the owner, and not only to avoid the craft
being used without the necessary knowledge.
