单词 | Charterparty |
释义 | 租船合約 A contract whereby an entire vessel or some principal part of the vessel may be used or employed by the charterer for a voyage or series of voyage or for a period of time. It consists of a signed contract embodying the terms already negotiated and agreed by the parties. The parties to a charterparty are the shipowner and the charterer. The essential terms of a charterparty relate to the amount of freight payable, the method and time of payment, the places of loading and delivery of cargo, the number of lay days, and the rate of demurrage. The main categories of charterparty are: voyage charterparties (a contract to carry specified goods on a defined voyage or series of voyage, the shipowner is remunerated by the payment of freight); time charterparties (a contract to perform services during a specified period in consideration of the payment of hire for the time during which the charterer is entitled to the use of the vessel): Sea and Land Securities Ltd v William Dickinson & Co Ltd [1942] 2 KB 65, 1 All ER 503 (CA)); and charterparties by demise or bareboat charter (under which the vessel is leased to the charterer, with or without master and crew). A valid charterparty may be concluded by correspondence even if it is intended that the contract is to be afterwards embodied in a formal charterparty: Rederi Aktiebolaget Nordstjernan v Salvesen & Co (1903) 6 F 64, [1905] AC 302 (HL).
