Note: There are in common use the following terms relating to
tonnage: (a) Displacement. (b) Register tonnage, gross
and net. (c) Freight tonnage. (d) Builders'
measurement. (e) Yacht measurement. The first is mainly
used for war vessels, where the total weight is likely
to be nearly constant. The second is the most
important, being that used for commercial purposes. The
third and fourth are different rules for ascertaining
the actual burden-carrying power of a vessel, and the
fifth is for the proper classification of pleasure
craft. Gross tonnage expresses the total cubical
interior of a vessel; net tonnage, the cubical space
actually available for freight-carrying purposes. Rules
for ascertaining these measurements are established by
law.
