Small Craft Act, 2014 (No. 14 of 2015).

This Act provides rules for small craft operating within Antigua and Barbuda waters, irrespective of whether the small craft is also licensed or registered under any other law in Antigua and Barbuda. The Antigua and Barbuda Department of Marine Services and Merchant Shipping (“ADOMS”) shall be the authority responsible for the registration, licensing and regulation of small craft. “Small craft” means a vessel of less than 24 metres of length, whether non self-propelled, power-driven, manoeuvred by oars or poles or under sail, but does not include a vessel registered under the Fisheries Act, No. 22 of 2006.
