A number ofcopies are sent to the tally company and stevedoring company through the agent for the arrangement of loading and discharge6.The chief tallyman checks all goods loaded on board againstthe tally sheets and signs the S/O7.The chief officer, by reference to the tally, endorses theS/O, which then automatically becomes the mate`s receipt(M/R) to be issued to the shipper after loading8.After paying for the freight(prepaid), the shipper turnsover the M/R to the shipping company or agent in exchange for the B/L9.The shipper sends the B/L and other relevant documents tothe bank for negotiation of payment10.The agent makes out for the ship a suitable number ofcopies of the export manifest (M/F) and freight manifest(F/M), which are required by the customs at the local port as well as other port of call11.The consignee secures the B/L form the bank by effectingthe payment for goods12.The consignee presents the B/L to the shipping companyor agent in exchange for the delivery order(D/O), by which he takes delivery of goods at the warehouseLesson 11 collision of ships1.Collision of ships, in term of fault liability, can be classified into three categories: collision caused by fault of one party, collision caused by mixed fault and collision caused by no fault2.A collision report including the following items:1)The exact time of collision2)The position, heading, and speed of each vessel at thetime of collision3)Weather conditions(e.g. visibility, wind, sea and swell,ect,)4)An estimate of angle of collision to the other vessel5)What actions taken by own vessel to avoid collision6)The extent of damage caused to both vessels and the cargoas far as known7)The names of witness to the collision8)General information (e.g. name, nationality, port ofregistry, voyage, ect.) of both vesselsLesson 13 charter party1.Charter parties are diversified into three principalcategories: voyage charter, time charter and bareboat (demise) charter2.The voyage charter is, in essence, a contract ofaffreightment covering the movement a particular cargo from one designated port to another, at a stipulated rate of freight (charter hire) for each ton of the goods actually transported. The shipowner is responsible for all details of vessel operation. The charterer, in addition to putting the cargo within reach of the loading gear, must arrange forthe berthing places at port of loading and discharge, and quite often also must contract with stevedores to handle the cargo.Payment for the ship`s services must be made in accordance with the provisions of the charter-party3.The time charter is one under which the shipowner places theservices of a ship at the disposal of the charterer for a specified period of time, or rather hires out to the charterer the entire shipping space of a ship for the carriage of cargo on time basis, Unlike the revenue earned under the voyage charter, which is calculated on the tonnage value of the cargo, the time charter hire is calculated on the carrying capacity of the ship plus running cost of the ship, excluding wages. So the larger the ship, the more the charterer pays4.The bareboat (demise) charter is one under which theshipowner transfers operational control of the ship to the charterer. The vessel must be seaworthy and full equipped at the time she is delivered to the charterer. During the chartering period, the burden and responsibility of operation are assumed by the charterer. The shipowner periodically receives the agreed payment which, as in the time charter, is based upon the deadweight tonnage of the shipLesson 14 sea protest and general average1.A note of sea protest is a declaration or deposition by themaster, made under oath, giving full particulars regarding heavy weather or other incident, which may have caused damage to the vessel or cargo during the voyage.2.A ship has met with any of the following circumstances inthe course of the voyage, it is advisable for the master to note a sea protest:1)Whenever during the voyage ship encounters conditions ofwind and sea, which may result in damage to cargo2)When form any cause ship is damaged, or feared to bedamaged3)When through stress of weather it has not beenpracticable to adopt normal precautions in the matter ofventilation of perishable cargo4)When cargo is shipped in such a condition as likely tosuffer deterioration during the voyage (but, in this case, protest will not be effective unless B/L was endorsed toshow the condition of cargo at the time of shipment)5)In all case of General Average3.A general average acts when, and only when, anyextraordinary sacrifice or expenditure is voluntarily and reasonably made or incurred in the time of peril for the purpose of preserving the property imperiled in the common adventure.4.Particular average is a term applied to any accidental loss,less than a total loss of vessel and cargo, by a peril which is not of a general average nature信函:（less3）Write a application to Immigration Office in the port of Yokohama, Japan, requesting twenty-four landing permitsfor the crew members of your ship on your arrival at the said port如下：M.V. “XXX”Port of Yokohama10 August, 2000 The Immigration OfficePort of Yokohama, JapanDear Sirs,Re: Crew List VisaIn accordance with the regulations of Japan Government, any Chinese seamen in and with the ship sailing for a Japan port must get Crew List Visaed by the Japan Embassy or Consulate in the last port of call in order that they canget landing permits when the ship arrives at the Japan port.Manned with 24 Chinese seamen, my ship is bound for the port of Yokohama after completion of discharging at this port.

The shipping containers we provide are of two sizes, namely 10ft and 20 ft respectively. They can be opened at both ends, thus making it possible to load and unload at the same time. For carrying goods liable to be spoiled by damp or water they have the great advantage of being both water-tight and air-tight. Containers can be loaded and locked at the factory, if necessary. Pilferage is therefore impossible.Being temperature-controlled, our containers are provided for any cargo that needs special care. This lends its full benefit in shipping.There is also a saving on freight charges, when separate consignments intended for the same port of destination are carried in one container, and an additional saving on insurance because of lower premium charged for container-shipped goods.We enclose a copy of our tariff and look forward to receiving your instructions.
