The Director may grant to individual ships exemptions or equivalents of a partial or conditional nature, when any such ship is engaged on a voyage where the maximum distance of the ship from the shore, the length and nature of the voyage, the absence of general navigational hazards, and other conditions affecting safety are such as to render the full application of this Chapter unreasonable or unnecessary, provided that the Director has taken into account the effect such exemptions and equivalents may have upon the safety of all other ships.
