🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between voyage, time, and bareboat/demise charters • Who has possession and control of the vessel under each type of charter • What kinds of costs (like stevedoring or cargo handling**) are typically paid by the charterer vs. the owner

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In this scenario, does the charterer run and crew the ship, or just use its cargo space while the owner still operates it? • Which type of charter transfers full control of the vessel (including crewing and navigation) to the charterer, and which type does NOT? • Is paying stevedoring expenses, by itself, enough to mean the charterer operates the vessel?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which charter type means the owner still operates, mans, and navigates the vessel • Check which charter type is defined by transfer of possession and control of the vessel to the charterer • Confirm whether stevedoring costs alone change the basic nature of the charter party
