NYPE 1993 – OFF HIRE – EMPLOYMENT ORDERS – REASONABLE DELAY IN COMPLIANCE – UNSAFE BERTH, PORT COSTS
The vessel was time-chartered on an amended NYPE 1993 form with additional clauses for a one-trip charter “via ECSA to Persian Gulf–Japan range (intention Iraq) with cargo of grains in bulk (intention soybeans).” Hire was fixed at US$20,000 per day. The charter contained the usual clauses requiring safe berths, safe ports, and compliance with charterers’ orders, together with an off-hire provision.
