The means for securing these doors weather tight shall consist of gaskets and clamping devices or other equivelant means and shall be permanently attached to the bulkhead or to the doors themselves, and the doors shall be so arranged that they can be operated from both sides of the bulkhead. MI observed a weather tight door on the port side aft superstructure that was not weather tight. The door was sealed using what appeared to be a silicone sealant and air could be felt on the outboard side coming through the door frame. The door is not permanently installed, rather bolted to the bulkhead. Observed cracking on the upper corners of the bulkhead where the door met. The door was not easily opened from both sides, the door lock jammed an was eventually freed. Permanently install door and make weather tight to satisfaction of Classification Society. -ICLL (2005) Ch.II, Reg. 12-1
