ABSTRACT
Provision is made for the not infrequent case of the charterer asking for permission to breach International Navigation Limits or the trading limits defined in Box 16. In such a case the owner may accede to the request on terms to be agreed, including adjustment of hire. However, there is no obligation upon the owner to agree under the wording of clause 6; if it is desired to have an enforceable right in this respect then consideration should be given to the common-form wording ‘‘without the owners’s prior consent, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld’’.
