Chartering & Ship Sale

We provide a complete range of chartering services and advise shipowners and charterers on the drafting of all types of time, voyage and bareboat charterparties as well as contracts of affreightment in respect of all kinds of cargo, passenger and offshore vessels in order to better protect our clients’ interests. We are also retained to advise on disputes regarding cargo claims, demurrages, and payment of hire. If requested, we will also proceed to appoint surveyors to carry out on-hire and off-hire inspections whenever delivery or redelivery takes place at a Spanish port.

We also advise on sale and purchase of second-hand vessels by drafting protective memorandums of agreement, bills of sale and protocols of delivery and acceptance, by creating or releasing, as the case may be, the corresponding ship mortgages, or by arranging for pre-delivery inspections. If needed, we are also able to cooperate in looking for financing from banks and financial institutions specialising in the marine industry throughout the European market. Lastly, we fully arrange with Spanish shipping authorities and registries for registration or deregistration of vessels in and from the ordinary shipping registry or the special shipping registry of the Canary Islands, including tax and custom clearance services.

We perform all the above tasks at the best fee rate and supporting your commercial interests in a professional and reliable manner.
