Sec. 58.01-35  Main propulsion auxiliary machinery.

    Auxiliary machinery vital to the main propulsion system must be 
provided in duplicate unless the system served is provided in 
independent duplicate, or otherwise provides continued or restored 
propulsion capability in the event of a failure or malfunction of any 
single auxiliary component.

    Note: Partial reduction of normal propulsion capability as a result 
of malfunction or failure is acceptable if the reduced capability is not 
below that necessary for the vessel to run ahead at 7 knots or half 
speed, whichever is less, and is adequate to maintain control of the 
ship.
