Introduction 11 Shipping means the transportation of goods from one location to another by using one of the following modes: - air; land or water The shipping we are concerned with is primarily the movement of goods by ships and the many factors that Capt. Devron S. Newman - GSK 12/14/2021 affect this mode of transportation.

The Lessons in Unit 1 12 Companies and authorities Parts of a ship Commonly used terms and definitions These lessons are basic but they provide us with the necessary underpinning knowledge. Many of the terms and parts of the ship will be mentioned throughout the course, hence the importance of this unit. Capt. Devron S. Newman - GSK 12/14/2021

Agents 13 Agents are local firms that represent owners, steamship lines, or charterers in ports to which a vessel trades. The Agent looks after the interests of its principal, that is, advises authorities about the ship’s arrival, oversees the vessel’s clearance, attends to cargo documents, collects freight charges, books export cargoes, tends to the crew’s needs such as money or medical services.

Voyage Charter 17 A voyage charter is the hiring of a vessel and crew for a voyage between a load port and a discharge port. The charterer pays the vessel owner on a per-ton or a lump-sum basis. The owner pays the port costs, fuel costs and crew costs. A voyage charter specifies a period, known as laytime, for loading and unloading the cargo. Capt. Devron S. Newman - GSK 12/14/2021

Time Charter 18 A time charter is the hiring of a vessel for a specific period of time; the owner still manages the vessel but the charterer selects the ports and directs the vessel where to go.

They validate the construction of ships according to the standards and carry out regular surveys to ensure compliance. Upon completion a Certificate of Seaworthiness is issued. Surveys and inspections are conducted by surveyors or recognised organisations. Capt. Devron S. Newman - GSK 12/14/2021
