This book examines for the first time the Barecon 2001 form which was adopted by the Documentary Committee of BIMCO in November 2001. The title explains the nature and formation of a bareboat charter, and examines and comments upon each of the clauses contained in the new form, drawing comparisons with the Barecon 89 form. It gives separate consideration to the form and the issues that arise in the context of finance charters and leases. It also provides valuable guidance upon the admiralty and arrest jurisdiction of the English court in relation to bareboat charters. The second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated, with extended commentary on the issues arising in the context of bareboat charters regarding insolvency, insurance and the provisions for new buildings.

This volume explains the nature and formation of a bareboat charter and examines each of the clauses contained in the industry-standard form "BIMCO Barecon 89". It also provides guidance on the admiralty and arrest jurisdiction of the English court in relation to bareboat charters. This book aims to answer day-to-day questions that arise in this area, such as: the detailed nature of the parties' rights and obligations; the owners' and chaterers' rights to cancel; the availibility of relief from forfeiture; and the exposure to pollution and other risk of finance lessors. It is hoped thet "Bareboat Charters" will be a useful reference tool for maritime lawyers, barristers, chaterers, shipowners and ship managers.
