| 单词 | Bottomry |
| 释义 | 船舶抵押借款 A contract in the nature of a mortgage on a ship by which a ship owner pledges a ship or the keel on bottom of the ship, pars pro toto (part for the whole) as security for a loan which allows the vessel to complete a voyage. If the ship is lost in the course of the voyage or during the limited time by any of the maritime perils enumerated in the contract, the lender will lose the money advanced. Bottomry can include a charge on the ship’s freight and cargo. When the loan is made only on the cargo on board which are to be sold or exchanged in the course of the voyage, the guarantee is termed a ‘respondentia bond’: Cargo ex Sultan (1859) Sw 504, 166 ER 1235. Bottomry takes priority over all mortgages: The Duke of Bedford (1829) 2 Hag Adm 294; 166 ER 251. Any claim arising out of bottomry shall be heard and determined by the Admiralty jurisdiction of the Court of First Instance: High Court Ordinance (Cap 4) s 12A(2)(q). Actions of bottomry are brought for the purpose of enforcing bottomry bonds: Cargo ex Sultan, supra. Also known as ‘bottomree bond’, ‘bummaree bond’ or ‘bottomry bill’. See also Bottomry bond. 根據抵押船隻的合約，船東用船或船底部的龍骨抵押，以部分當作全部作為借貸款項的抵押品，以便讓船隻完成航程。倘若船在航程途中或在限定的時間內，遇上合約所列舉的海難失事，貸款人便會損失所放貸的款項。船舶抵押借款可包括對船隻運費及船上貨物作出押記。倘若僅就船上的貨物作出貸款，而在船隻航行途中會出售或交換該貨物，則有關的保證稱為「船貨抵押借款擔保」：Cargo ex Sultan (1859) Sw 504，166 ER 1235。船舶抵押借款在所有按揭之上有優先權：The Duke of Bedford (1829) 2 Hag Adm 294; 166 ER 251。因船舶抵押借款而引致的任何申索，會由擁有海事司法管轄權的高等法院原訟法庭進行聆訊並作出裁定：《高等法院條例》（第4章）第12A(2)(q)條。為強制執行船舶抵押借款擔保契據的目的，可提出船舶抵押借款的訴訟：Cargo ex Sultan, 見上文。另稱「押船借貸合約」，「船舶抵押契據」，以及「船舶抵押票據」。另見 Bottomry bond。n. |
