The quantities are based on three types of ships: -ocean-going ships with crews of 25-40 and no doctor (Category A); -coastal ships with crews of up to 25 that travel no more than 24 hours from a port of call (Category B); -small boats and private craft with crews of 15 or less, and usually travelling no more than a few hours from a port of call (Category C).
