二:装卸时间与滞期费(十二)专题船舱备妥(3)THE " LINARDOS"高院
Lloyd's Law Reports [1994] Vol. 1 LLOYD'S LAW REPORTS 28
(1)第一次递交的NOR有效,装卸时间开始起算
(2)普通法对于船舱清洁的严格要求被第4条所减轻,只是以后发现船舱不清洁至船舶备妥的时间不计算为通知时间与装卸时间(没有提到滞期费)
(3)合并条款不能超过明示条款所表现的双方的的合意(第4条)
(4)2.12.1与2.14.4条款,并没有明确、清晰的表明船舱清洁干净是递交NOR的先决条件,
而2.12.1包含在第4条的fulfill requirement中!
4. Time commencing . . . 18 hours after Notice of Readiness has been given by the Master, certifying that the vessel has arrived and is in all respects ready to load whether in berth or not . . .
Any time lost subsequently by vessel not fulfilling requirements for . . . readiness to load in all respects, including Marine Surveyor’s Certificate . . . or for any other reason for which the vessel is responsible, shall not count as notice time or as time allowed for loading . . .
