management, they provide, stores, bunkers, repairs, employment and pay hire. Mostly last 2-
3 years or longer. It takes place when an owner has no knowledge of boating. A bank for
example of investment company. They earn there money with leasing. All the work is done
by charter.

navigation. this means the crew is employed by the owner. The charterer arranges and pays
for the bunker (fuel), pays for hire and port charges and arrange the employment,
employment means here employment of the ship. Forms: NYPE(BIMCO) ASBATIME
(FONASBA) and Gentime (1999). Work is divided. Time chartering has a price market with a
time slot there will be agreed price (fixed).
Voyage chartering (for one voyage), Beneficial of your close to opportunity but it can also
work against you if there are not close and have to wait. owner does the management with
maintenance and crewing, bunkers, port charges appointment of agents(need a rep in port),
safety of the ship and navigation. Charterer only provides the cargo mentioned in the
agreement, if not met there will be fine (deadfeight). Charterer pays freight. Charterer is
responsible for loading and discharging, charterer agree to unload in the contract in a certain
time, if not met that time. There will be fee (demurrage) if you load faster than you get
