Abstract

FREIGHT AND ALL CONDITIONS AS PER CHARTERPARTY By JOHS. JANTZEN1) In the tramp business the Bill of Lading is a short and clear document without the superfluity of words which is found in liner Bills of Lading, and which have made these documents so un- popular. The Bill of Lading as a rule in the tramp business contains a short reference to the Charterparty. It would make the Bill of Lading unnecessarily lengthy to incorporate the Charterparty word for word, or to attach the Charterparty to it; nor would this be a practical solution for the Charterparty is not always to hand at the loading place when the Bill of Lading has to be issued. I know that this solution has been the subject of discussion in con- nection with the forthcoming revision of the provisions of the French commercial code relating to chartering - but this cannot be the right solution. It is clear that both parties - shipowner and charterer - are entitled to claim that the conditions of the Charterparty shall bind the receiver. To achieve this in a simple manner applicable to all cases people have from early times been content with quite a
