Safe Port a port will not be safe unless, in the relevant period of time, the particular ship can reach it, use it, and return from it without, in the absence of some abnormal occurrence, being exposed to damage which cannot be avoided by good navigation and seamanship. Charter Hire - is normally agreed on a contractual basis, where no sum has been agreed, the hire must be equitable, or sometimes the rate is calculated according to a standard scale like the International Tanker Nominal Freight Scale. A charterer may set off certain claims against hire, even where the contract does not expressly give him the right to do so. If the shipowner wrongly and in breach of contract deprives the charterer for a time of the use of the vessel, the charterer can deduct a sum equivalent to the hire for the time so lost. Hire is only interrupted by the occurrence of some event which takes the ship off hire under a charter clause or the contract is frustrated. Hire payment - The charterer is liable to pay hire in advance. The charterparty will state the currency to be used in accounting e.g. Sterling or US Dollars. Off-hire clause - since it operates for the benefit of the charterer, will be construed in favour of the shipowner if it's meaning is not clear. The clause provides that in the event of time being lost in circumstances which prevent the working of the vessel for more than 24 hours, payment of hire shall cease until she is again efficient to resume service. If the time lost exceeds 24 hours, hire is not payable in respect of the first 24 hours. If a vessel breaks down and puts into a port for repairs, she is off hire, but hire will be payable again when she is fit to sail again from that place, and not from the time she reaches the location of her break down. Hire recommences as soon as the ship is able to resume service though she is not then in the same geographical position and though in effect the charterer has to pay twice for the same part of the voyage. Place of Arbitration - in most charterparties is affected through London or New York, with organisations like the London Maritime Arbitrators Association (LMAA) or law courts like the Commercial Division of the High Court of Justice. Lien - the right to hold property until a debt is paid off. Salvage - the act of, and the money paid for, saving property of a ship and/or cargo, it is a contractual agreement and in time charters the award is normally paid equally to the shipowner and the charterer.
