About this course
In this short course, we look at time charterparties, how time charterparties are different from voyage charterparties, the primary payment obligation arising under time charterparties, which is hire, the prompt payment of hire, and a very important question which had gained significance in recent years, namely is the payment of hire clause a condition?
In part 2, we look at the key clauses relating to off-hire, when is a vessel off-hire, final orders to be issued by charterers and redelivery of the vessel to the shipowners.
