Ship Sale and Purchase 6th ed

Ship Sale and Purchase is an essential working guide for anyone involved in the business of making ship sale contracts and also in the resolution of related disputes. This timely new edition provides the first update to Saleform since the last edition in 2008 and coincides with the launch of Saleform 2012, detailing the changes from the 93 form, the first revision in 19 years.

This authoritative text continues to be eminently practical, highlighting potential problems and tensions between the key parties and the best action to be taken. The sixth edition is written as a clause-by-clause commentary of the new form and also includes:-

• Practical insight into competitor forms namely Nipponsale 1999 and Singapore Saleform 2011, as appropriate, in the clause-by-clause analysis;
• A comprehensive assessment of the many ways in which the standard form provisions could be modified;
• A lucid evaluation of recent case law that highlights some of the contractual issues that can – and have – arisen in recent years;
