The engine power in kilowatts of the vessels shall be that recorded for each vessel in the EU fishing fleet register. U.K.

10.2. The total number of days present within the area transferred under point 10.1. multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of the donor vessel shall not be higher than the donor vessel's average annual days track record in the area as verified by the fishing logbook in the years 2008 and 2009 multiplied by the engine power in kilowatts of that vessel. U.K.

10.3. The transfer of days as described in point 10.1. shall be permitted only between vessels operating with any regulated gear and during the same management period. U.K.

10.4. Transfer of days is only permitted for vessels benefiting from an allocation of fishing days without special conditions. U.K.
