London Arbitration 14/15
GENCON 76 – DUNNAGE: OWNER’S OR CHARTERER’S RESPONSIBILITY – NOTICE OF READINESS – COMMENCEMENT OF LAYTIME – DEMURRAGE – DETENTION – Charterer award
A cargo of steel H-beams were to be loaded on top of a previously loaded part cargo of rebar. Charterer and Owner could not agree as to which party should be responsible for costs and time associated with building a false deck, whether the vessel’s NOR was valid, and thus when laytime commenced counting.
