Hi All,
I had an issue, with one of the vessel i fixed as a broker, relating to Time Frame by which Stowage Plan should have been provided by the vessel.
The incidence has happened that vessel had provided the stowage plan after 5 days of fixing the vessel and that day was the weekend. Charterer put owner on notice stating that “Its owner/master duty to provide the pre stowage plan along with the First Notice they serve to charterer”. However the same was declined by owner on the ground that vessel berthing was not actually affected due to delay in providing the stowage plan.
My question is that “Was Charterer plea was right in their saying”
Please advice
Rgds
