Probably not.  All they require is that you have 15 m of buoyant line that 
can be used as a heaving line.  They don't regulate how you coil or stow 
the rope.  Compared to a standard coil, chain sinnet is vastly superior, as 
it can be uncoiled and put to use without tangling.  A standard coil jammed 
into a boat or subjected to abuse on the deck of a kayak, would almost 
certainly jam into a zillion knots.
