8 Builder’s certificate
(1) Subject to subregulation (2), a builder’s certificate in relation to a ship must be duly signed by the builder of the ship and must specify:
(a) the name (if any) of the ship;
(b) the builder’s identification of the ship;
(c) the date of completion of the ship;
(d) the place of construction of the ship;
(e) the name and address of the builder;
(f) the name and address of the person for whom the ship was built;
(fa) the date on which the ship was delivered or handed over to the person
for whom the ship was built; and
(g) particulars of the prescribed characteristics of the ship.
(2) Where a ship has been built in stages by more than one builder:
(a) a builder’s certificate in relation to the ship may consist of several documents in accordance with subregulation (1), each of which relates to one or more of those stages; and
(b) a builder’s certificate that relates to all of those stages, or a document referred to in paragraph (a) that relates to more than one of those stages, must be duly signed by all of the builders responsible for the building work carried out in those stages.
(3) Without limiting the generality of subregulation (2), where a ship that is the subject of an application for registration has been altered (whether by the builder or by another person) after its completion, the ship is taken, for the purposes of that subregulation, to have been built in stages by more than one builder.
