What 50 includes
- This division comprises passenger and freight transport by water, whether or not on a fixed schedule, for professional, personal, or recreational purposes. Also included is the operation of tugs and push boats, excursion boats, cruise ships and sightseeing boats, ferries, water taxis, etc. Although location provides an indication of the distinction between sea and inland waterway transport, the type of vessel used is the determining factor. Transport by seaworthy vessels is classified into the groups.50 1and50 2, while transport with other vessels in the groups50 3and50 4is classified.
- This class does not include the operation of restaurants and bars on board ships (5611, 5630) if it is executed by other units.
