1 Craft and manufacturer

Type of craft

A single address at which the manufacturer can be contacted; up to four lines, shown on the plate as entered.

2 Identification number (WIN)

Optional. The number is composed from its five elements (Directive 2013/53/EU, Annex I, Part A, 2.1; Regulation (EU) 2017/1, Art. 3) and shown on the plate as on the template, with a hyphen after the country code. The tool assigns no code: the manufacturer code comes from the national authority (in Türkiye, the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure).

The year in which this craft is intended to be placed on the market.

On the plate: —

3 Values from your documentation

Copy the values from your technical documentation. The tool does not calculate, estimate or check them. Directive 2013/53/EU, Annex I, Part A: 1 (design categories), 3.6 (maximum recommended load), 2.2 (builder’s plate)

Design category 1

The builder’s-plate load from your documentation (EN ISO 14946:2021); it excludes the contents of full fixed tanks.

Where do these values come from?

For example “Stability booklet rev. B”. Not printed on the plate; listed in the draft data sheet.

The maximum rated engine power declared in the owner’s manual (Annex I, Part A, 4); shown next to the design category with the propeller symbol. Up to two decimals.

Shown with the outboard symbol; whole kilograms, from your documentation.

4 Notified body

Is the craft placed on the market or put into service after a post-construction assessment?

After a post-construction assessment, the plate also carries the words “post-construction assessment” and the notified body’s contact details (Annex V, 4.3).

Does a notified body take part in production control?

Where a body takes part, its number and contact details are printed after the CE marking exactly as you enter them; the body affixes the number or has it affixed (Art. 18(3)).

Points for the reviewer

  • Whether a notified body takes part is not settled; the notified body placeholder may be missing or not needed.
  • 1 category row is not tied to a document.
  • The CE marking is drawn in the official proportions for layout only; on the final plate the manufacturer or its authorised representative (after a post-construction assessment, the person placing the craft on the market or putting it into service) affixes it, at least 5 mm high, after the conformity assessment.
  • The persons line shows persons × 75 kg (EN ISO 14946 convention), not a value from your documentation.
  • Layout, text heights and symbols are not verified against EN ISO 14945:2021.
  • Print the PDF at 100 % (actual size) and check the size with a ruler.

About the builder’s plate

What the plate shows

  • The manufacturer’s name, registered trade name or registered trade mark, and contact address.
  • The CE marking, affixed by the manufacturer (after a PCA, by the person placing the craft on the market or putting it into service).
  • The design category.
  • The manufacturer’s maximum recommended load.
  • The number of persons recommended by the manufacturer.
  • After a post-construction assessment: the words “post-construction assessment” and the notified body’s contact details.

Directive 2013/53/EU, Annex I, Part A, 2.2; Annex V, 4

How the generator works

  • Your entries are laid out on a fixed draft template, in millimetres.
  • The preview and the files are drawn from the same layout, so they match.
  • If something is missing or does not fit, you get a list of what to fix instead of a file.
  • A file without the DRAFT marking is never produced by the tool.

Limits

  • Draft output only. Every preview and file is marked DRAFT and is not for affixing to a craft.
  • Values come from your documentation; the tool never calculates a load, a number of persons or a design category.
  • The CE marking is drawn for layout only; the notified body number and contact details are printed only as you enter them.
  • Layout, text heights and symbols are not verified against EN ISO 14945:2021; personal watercraft are not supported.
