Variant1

I. Translate the following text.

1. Merchant ships are designed to carry cargo. This cargo may be divided into two basic types: bulk cargo and general cargo. Bulk cargo consists of a single commodity. This commodity is usually carried loose. General cargo consists of a variety of goods. These goods are packed separately. Bulk cargo is carried in specially designed vessels, therefore stowage presents few problems. With general cargo stowage presents many problems, because each item has its own type of packaging and characteristics.

2. For really effective use containers are associated with the most up-to-date handling methods, purpose made cranes and trucks activated by automatic electronic devices, and with computer control. Not all routes are suitable for container traffic, but on those which are, where the flows of cargo are sufficiently dense, the benefits are marked reductions in labour costs, due to the elimination of much handling which would otherwise be necessary and in time spent in port. Other benefits claimed include protection of goods from damage by weather or theft, and a generally lower level of transport and insurance costs.

3. Neither Charterers nor Owners shall be responsible for the consequences of any strikes or lock-outs preventing or delaying the fulfilment of any obligation under this contract. If there is a strike or lock-out affecting the loading of the cargo, or any part of it when vessel is ready to proceed from her last port or at any time during the voyage to the port or ports of loading or after her arrival there, Captain or Owners may ask Charterers to declare that they agree to reckon the laydays as if there were no strike or lock-out. Unless Charterers have given such declaration in writing within 24 hours, Owners shall have the option of cancelling this contract. If part of cargo has already been loaded, Owners must proceed with same (freight payable on loaded quantity only) having liberty to complete with other cargo on the way for their own account.

II. Answer the questions:

What information does the pilot’s card contain?
What are the duties of the OOW when the ship is at anchor?
What information can you find in the headings of the charts?
What do you know about the document which is called the Certificate of Free Pratique?
What equipment should be prepared and checked before the ship’s arrival in the port?
What is bulk cargo?
How is bulk cargo carried?
What are the benefits of container traffic?
How are the laydays reckoned in case of strike or lock out?
What option shall receivers have if there is strike or lock out?

III. Translate the following business letter into English and be ready to comment on the situation:

VI. Read and translate the information about one of the ports from "Guide to Port Entry". Enclose its original text. Get ready to comment on this information and discuss it with the teacher.

Variant 2

I. Translate the following text:
Bulk cargo can be divided into liquid or dry bulk cargo. Liquid bulk cargo is carried in tankers. Most tankers are designed to carry crude oil or its refined products, such as fuel oils. The oil is carried in tanks. These are connected by a system of pipes to a central manifold. The cargo is pumped on board at the loading port by shore pumps. At the discharging port the ship pumps the oil ashore using her own pumps. Dry bulk cargo is carried in bulk carriers. The cargo is carried in self-trimming holds. Dry bulk cargo includes grain, iron-ore, coal and sugar. It is loaded automatically by buckets on a conveyor belt system or through large tubes. Although the cargo stows itself, it is important to maintain the ship’s stability and to make sure that the cargo will not move during the voyage. Dry bulk cargo is unloaded by huge grabs of cranes or by giant suction tubes.
The Association surveyors advise what should be done with damaged cargo and, where appropriate, they agree allowances for depreciation, they arrange for reconditioning on the spot or wherever better facilities are available or they arrange sale in the damaged condition locally or wherever they know of a better market. Like the ship surveyors they establish the cause of loss or damage so that underwriters can decide whether there is a claim under their policy.
Owners are to be responsible for loss or damage to the goods or for delay in delivery of the goods only in case the loss, damage or delay has been caused by the improper or negligent stowage of the goods (unless stowage performed by shippers or their stevedores or servants) or by personal want of due diligence on the part of the Owners or their Manager to make the vessel in all respects seaworthy and to secure that she is properly manned, equipped and supplied or by the personal act or default of the Owners or their Manager.

II. Answer the following questions:

What berthing information should be available before arrival in the port?
What are tides caused by?
What information is given in Pilot Books under the heading of “Directions”?
What structures are lights exhibited from?
How are dangers marked?
What properties should the vessel retain after loading the cargo?
On what condition may different kinds of cargo be stowed in one hold?
What do you call Charter Party?
Why does the Cargo Officer retain a copy of each Bill of Lading?
In what case are Owners to be responsible for loss of or damage to goods?

III. Translate the following business letter into English and be ready to comment on the situation:

IV. Develop the following business situations:

1. Describe the procedure of examining your ship by the Customs during one of your voyages.
2. Give the instructions for the foreman how you want to have the barrels stowed in one of the holds. Some of these barrels are leaky. You blame the stevedore for inefficient securing of the rails with ropes and explain him how to secure them properly with chain lashings.

V. Translate part of the dialogue by VHF into English. Rewrite the whole dialogue:

VI. Read and translate the information about one of the ports from "Guide to Port Entry". Enclose its original text. Get ready to comment on this information and discuss it with the teacher.

Variant 3

I. Translate the following text:

1. Containerization also has a number of disadvantages. These concern cost and, what might be called, inconvenience. With reference to cost, a containerized transport system is expensive to establish. The shipowner has not only to buy specially designed container ships, but also the containers to go with them. However, these can be hired and some shippers provide their own containers. Special port facilities, such as special cranes, must also be provided by the port authority. These are expensive to build and beyond the means of some countries and port authorities.

2. In most cases the Association surveyors act for underwriters insuring particular cargoes but where a loaded vessel is in distress it is now the practice for the shipowner or his average adjuster to instruct the Association in what is known as the “General Interest” respecting cargo. In such cases the Association advises the shipowner regarding the whole of the cargo and, when the casualty is the major one, a special cargo surveyor is sent from London to cooperate with the master of the vessel in minimizing loss, to record loss or damage, and in general to keep a close watch on the cargo aspect of the casualty. Information concerning maritime casualties pours into the Association daily by cable and telex.

Cargo to be brought alongside in such a manner as to enable vessel to take the goods with her own tackle and to load the full cargo in running working days. Charterers to procure and pay the necessary men on shore or on board the lighters to do the work there, vessel only heaving the cargo on board. If the loading takes place by elevator cargo to be put free in vessel’s holds, Owners only paying trimming expenses. Any pieces and/or packages of cargo over two tons weight, shall be loaded, stowed and discharged by Charterers at their risk and expense.

II. Answer these questions:
1. What purpose does a light serve in navigation?
2. How many types of marks does the IALA system provide? What are their names?
3. What dangers may threaten ship’s safety?
4. Why should mooring lines be constantly watched when the ship is at berth?
5. What factors does the direction and the rate of tidal streams depend on?
6. Who is to secure clean receipts for the goods delivered?
7. What payments is the agent to collect from consignees?
8. What do you call Mate’s Receipt?
9. Why shouldn’t the master sign post-dated or ante-dated bills of lading?
10. When are a stowage plan and cargo manifest compiled?

III. Translate the following business letter into English and be ready to comment on the situation:

IV. Develop the following business situations:
Your ship is approaching the port where pilotage is compulsory. What information should be exchanged between Master and Pilot and Pilot and Master?

(BPG, Annex Al Ship to Shore Annex A 2 Shore to Ship)

In calculating the total amount of boxes the shore tallyman admitted a mistake. By comparing your entries with the tallyman’s receipts you found out who was to blame for this short-shipping. The shore tallyman was to acknowledge his fault and the missing boxes were delivered to you.

Variant 4

I. Translate the following text:
With reference to inconvenience, containerization causes a number of problems. Not all cargo can be put into containers. However, the percentage of non-containerizable cargo falls each year as new types of containers are introduced. Another inconvenience is that different types of containers are needed for different journeys and different times of the year. It may also be difficult for a small shipping company to fill a container to capacity with compatible cargo. It is uneconomical to carry half full containers in a ship. However, these difficulties have largely been overcome by the cooperation of all those involved. Finally a containerized system of transport depends on good road and rail links with the port and the surrounding countryside. In some countries these have not yet been developed.
A protest is a declaration by the master, officers and crew, or some of them giving particulars of the voyage, of any bad weather or accident encountered and of the course which under any circumstances of emergency the master has thought proper to pursue. In all cases of putting into an intermediate port or in which either ship or cargo has received damage from any cause, the circumstances should be the subject of a protest made as soon as possible after arrival in port, while the facts are fresh in the declarants’ minds; it should contain a full narrative and be carefully prepared, being, as it is, of great importance in connection with any claim which may arise under insurances, and in the adjustment of any averages.

Protest may also be made by the master against the charterers of the ship, or against the consignees of goods, for not loading or unloading in accordance with Contract or within stipulated time, and by the merchant against the master for misconduct, delay in sailing, not signing Bills of Lading in customary form, and other irregularities.

П. Answer these questions:

What is it necessary to do to bring the ship to anchor?
What pilot’s boarding arrangements are required?
How does a ship start her contact with a shore radio-station?
When and who to shall the Master report his ship’s arrival in port?
What is the duty of the medical officer of the port aboard the ship?
What problems does containerization cause?
What is the Cargo Manifest based upon?
In accordance with what document is the cargo taken on board the ship?
What should be taken into account when planning the stowage of goods?
How should the cargo be stowed if it is consigned to several ports?

Variant 5

I. Translate the following text:
General cargo can be divided into containerized, non-containerized and refrigerated cargo. Non-containerized cargo presents most stowage problems, because each commodity has its own type of packing and characteristics. Goods may be in bags, bales, cases or steel drums. Individual pieces of machinery may not be packaged at all. Heavy cargoes must not be stowed on top of fragile cargoes. Non-containerized cargo is carried in multi-deck vessels. To help with the problem of stowage many types of general cargo are now being put into containers. The containers are stowed both above and below deck. Perishable cargoes such as meat, fruit and dairy produce are carried in ships with refrigerated holds. Some food such as fish is frozen solid, other food such as fruit is only chilled. Mutton and lamb are stowed fore and aft, beef when chilled is hung on hooks. Eggs and butter are easily tainted. Fruit needs good ventilation. Refrigerated cargo is loaded by cranes and derricks.
The time allowed to the Charterer for loading and discharging a ship is called lay time/days/hours. Lay days are reckoned either by running days or working days. Running days are consecutive days, running from one date to another without any break or exception; working days are those days on which it is usual to work at the port, Sundays and holidays not being counted as lay days.
Owners shall have a lien on the cargo for freight, dead-freight, demurrage and damages for detention. Charterers shall remain responsible for dead-freight and demurrage, incurred at the port of loading. Charterers shall also remain responsible for freight and demurrage, incurred at the port of discharge, but only to such extent as the owners have been unable to obtain payment thereof by exercising the lien on the cargo. Indemnity for non-performance of this Charter party, proved damages, not exceeding estimated amount of freight, rests with the guilty party.

II. Answer these questions:
1. What is the ship’s headway used for?
2. Why is it necessary for a navigator to have information about tides and tidal streams?
3. Where are instructions for navigators published?
4. What goods are prohibited? Dutiable? Bonded?
5. In what cases is the ship put in quarantine?
6. What plan is usually drawn up before starting loading?
7. On what condition may damaged goods be sometimes accepted for shipment?
8. What do you call Cargo Manifest?
9. What should be taken into account when planning the stowage of goods?
10. In what case may the captain exercise a lien upon the goods?

Variant 6

I. Translate the following text.

1. Receiving and Receipting. – A careful tally is essential; to facilitate which it should be insisted upon that slings always be made up of the same number of bags.

Bags should never be tallied in lighters or on shore. Tally should be taken at ship's rail. Torn, defective or hook-marked bags should be rejected; also stained bags, if with "clean" cargo, or receipted for as in that condition. Second-hand or stained bags should be receipted for as such.

2. Loading. – The use of hooks should not be permitted under any circumstances, this to apply on lighter or wharf with the same force as on the ship.

Avoid putting too much weight on a sling, otherwise the lower bags will be cut into and torn by the rope. Canvas sling should be used when handling flour, coffee, cocoa, etc.

Much tearing of bags is inflicted by slings grazing hatch coamings, beam sockets, or unshipped hatch beams when lowering to avoid which loading through unnecessarily restricted openings should not be permitted and the correct plumbing of sling, before lowering, insisted upon.

3. To avoid damage and loss of this kind, careful regard should be given to:

- Overstowing: goods should be selected for stowing on or over others with a view to eliminating or minimising the risk of such mixtures, avoiding where possible, such stowage as bagged seeds over jaggery, powdery goods over sugar or seeds, oil over ores, plastic granules over bagged rice, etc.

- Separations: when different lots of bulk grain, etc., or bagged goods are carried, the contents of which are liable to mix as a result of torn packages or of sifting, they should be separated in such a manner as to preclude mixture and facilitate the collection of "sweepings" from the top cargo before disturbing the stow below.

2. Why should a sharp look-out be kept in dangerous areas?
3. What information is included in the '"Notes" on charts?

Variant 7

I. Translate the following text.

1. Practically all modern vessels are fitted with some arrangement of double bottom adapted for the carriage of water ballast while most ocean going vessels are also fitted with deep tanks for this purpose.

Occasions arise, however, when it is advisable and even necessary to ship solid ballast to ensure deeper immersion for long trans-oceanic passages in wintertime.

The British Department of Trade and Industry from time to time drew attention to the number of shipping casualties due to the absence of center-line shifting boards, adequately supported in position, while special attention was drawn to the following materials commonly used as solid ballast: red marl and stones, mud ballast, coal ballast, sludge iron, ore, flint stones.

If ballasting under dry cargo, the ballasting material should be dry and devoid of objectionable properties.

2. Unless notice of loss or damage and the general nature of such loss or damage be given in writing to the carrier or his agent at the port of discharge before or at the time of the removal of the goods into the custody of the person entitled to delivery thereof under the contract of carriage, or if the loss or damage be not apparent, within three days such removal shall be prima facie evidence of the delivery by the carrier of the goods as described in the Bill of Lading.

3. Processed steel may suffer irreparable damage if rust is permitted to gain a hold. Canned goods spotted with rust, or worse, may lose much of their value to the consumer. Goods liable to damage by rust should not be stowed in the same compartment or container with cargo, packaging or dunnage which is liable to give off moisture. Ventilation may be a requirement, but as mentioned above, it could on occasion aggravate the situation.

II. Answer these questions.

Variant 8

I. Translate the following text.

1. The proper stowage of casks calls for the generous use of dunnage; cordwood sawn into short lengths being the most useful kind. All vacant spaces round pillars, ladders, between bulkhead stiffeners, etc. should be fully packed with dunnage and the space left in the wings packs solid to the height of the tier with dunnage, this being necessary to prevent movement of the casks when in a seaway which if once started, will prove disastrous to the wing casks.

2. After the goods are loaded the Bill of Lading to be issued by the carrier, master or agent of the carrier, to the shipper shall, if the shipper so demands, be a "shipped" Bill of Lading, provided that if the shipper shall have previously taken up any document of title to such goods, he shall surrender the same as against the issue of the "shipped" Bill of Lading, but at the option of the carrier such document of title may be noted at the port of shipment by the Carrier, Master or Agent with the name or names of the ship or ships upon which the goods have been shipped and the date and dates of shipment, and when so noted, shall be deemed to constitute a "shipped" Bill of Lading.

3. In order to protect the ship from blame and responsibility for pilferage occurring on shore the greatest vigilance by the Ship's Officers is necessary. Incoming cargo should be carefully examined ‑ which is best done on the dock or wharf rather than on board ‑ and every unsound or suspicious package rejected until its contents have been ascertained. When discharging, clean receipts for all packages delivered should be demanded except, of course, for those actually found to be short of contents.

To guard against pilferage and broaching on board ship, the Ship's Officers should organise a close watch on the holds and other cargo liable to be broached. When many holds containing broachable cargo are being worked, responsible ship's personnel (and where necessary special shore watchmen) should be employed in watching cargo.

Variant 9

I. Translate the following text.

1. High-density cargo should be loaded entirely in the lower holds unless this results in the ship being too "stiff or in the cargo weight on the bottom structure being excessive. When cargo is loaded only in lower holds, it should be trimmed sufficiently to cover all of the tank top out to the ship's side, and otherwise as necessary in order to reduce the pile peak height and equalize the weight distribution on the bottom structure.

2. Neither the carrier nor the ship shall be liable for loss or damage arising or resulting from unseaworthiness unless caused by want of due diligence on the part of the carrier to make the ship seaworthy, and to secure that the ship is properly manned, equipped and supplied, and to make the holds, refrigerating and cool chambers and all other parts of the ship in which goods are carried fit and safe for their reception, carriage and preservation.

Whenever loss or damage has resulted from unseaworthiness the burden of proving the exercise of due diligence shall be on the carrier or other person claiming exemption under this article.

3. Lowering heavy slings or drafts of cargo too fast on to cargo already in stowage may be responsible for damage, which often goes undetected until discharge. Similarly, forcefully dragging cargo out that is wedged by other cargo or even overstowed, may be another source of damage at the time of discharge.

The use of cargo hooks may be indispensable in the handling of a large variety of break bulk commodities, but with bagged cargo, fine baled goods, hides, furs, roils of paper and matting, light packages, liquid containers, crates and the like, packages whose contents are exposed or unprotected, the use of cargo hooks may be productive of much mischief and claims; and should be strictly prohibited.

Variant 10

I. Translate the following text.

1. Some containers are suitable for horizontal movement and are so constructed that fork-lift equipment can be used for handling them on shore or in the vessel's holds. Other containers are constructed with the whole strength in the four corner posts and designed to be moved solely by vertical hoist. This type is designed basically for use in specially built or converted vessels carrying containers in cellular type holds.

The loading of a cellular type vessel is carried out either by shore crane or in some instances by gantry-type cranes fitted on the vessel. Suitable lifting gear is used which automatically engages the container for lifting and subsequently disengages when the container has been placed in position in its vertical cell. The containers are lifted from the top. Frequently after one cell has been discharged load and discharge takes place simultaneously.

2. Goods of an inflammable, explosive or dangerous nature to the shipment whereof the carrier, master or agent of the carrier has not consented with knowledge of their nature and character, may at any time before discharge be landed at any place, or destroyed or rendered innocuous by the carrier without compensation and the shipper of such goods shall be liable for all damages and expenses directly or indirectly arising out of or resulting from such shipment. If any such goods shipped with such knowledge and consent shall become a danger to the ship or cargo, they may in like manner be landed innocuous by the carrier without liability on the part of the carrier except to general average, if any.

3. Bales of rags, unless thoroughly fumigated, often harbour lice and other insects which, in turn are carriers of certain diseases. This class of cargo should not be received on board unless accompanied by a reliable sanitary certificate, which in most cases requires to be endorsed by the consul of the country of destination.

Variant 11

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Cargoes of pig iron, steel billets and round iron or steel bars and pipes, unlike cargoes which can be properly lashed, are very difficult to secure effectively. In the upper tweendecks of many two and three deck ships the absence of hatch coamings more than a few inches high adds to the difficulty of securing pig iron and billets carried abreast the hatchways and there appears to be a greater risk of cargo shifting in these spaces than in the lower holds. The most effective way to secure these cargoes is to level them with other suitable cargo. Large quantities of uncovered pig iron or billets should not be carried in the upper tweendecks in order to secure an unduly low metacentric height since this does not eliminate the risks of cargo shifting and may endanger the ship if it shifts.

2. Clearing and forwarding agents very often act on behalf of exporters. An invoice must be made out for each package and forwarded to the consignee at the receiving end. This shows the mark of the package, the number and description of each article together with the price, charges and the name of the carrier. Apart from its commercial value, this document is necessary in the event of loss or damage in transit to enable an assessment of the claim to be made. The exporter or his representative applies for shipping space direct to the shipowner, his agent or broker. Ship brokers or agents generally work on a commission basis.

2. Delivery of the cargo to a person who does not hold a bill of lading is a breach of the bill of lading contract itself and the holder of the bill of lading can bring a claim against the shipowner. Such a delivery is also an infringement of the cargo owner's rights of ownership and the cargo owner can bring an action against the shipowner for infringing those rights. The cargo owner can also, of course, bring a claim against the party who has wrongfully demanded delivery of the cargo.

II. Answer these questions.

What is certified by the Survey Report?
Why shouldn’t the master sign post-dated or ante-dated bills of lading?
What is the difference between running days and working days?
When are a stowage plan and cargo manifest compiled?
In what case may the master exercise a lien upon the goods?
What information must the Captain have before anchoring?

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. At the appointed time, the goods are transported to the docks accompanied by a shipping note made out in duplicate, which is the harbinger’s authority to receive the goods and store them before shipment. This note gives details of marks, references, number and description of packages, weight, measurement and port of destination. Along with this note copies of the Shipping Order and Mate's Receipt are completed. The note is signed by the wharfinger and returned to the shipper, or his representative, who then lodges bills of lading with the shipowner or agent.

2. On the upper deck in a Ro-Ro ship containers are stowed three or four high and the securing systems are similar to those for the purpose -built container ships. Under deck in Ro-Ro ships, containers can normally be stowed one or two high. For flexibility reasons the containers are often stowed in blocks of ten. Within the ten-block system ten 20ft or five 40ft units can be stowed longitudinally or transversely. Various combinations of transverse and longitude stowage of 20ft units can also be achieved as well as combination of 20 ft and 40 ft containers.

3. When receiving sugar from lighter a sharp lookout should be kept for packages wetted with salt water - all of which should be rejected; any doubt on the matter can easily be settled by testing.

Holds and bilges should be thoroughly cleaned and all traces of oils, acid, or odours removed from both before receiving sugar. Loading sugar in wet weather should be avoided as sugar readily takes damage from moisture. For bag or mat sugar, all steel work requires to be well matted over. The fumes given off by sugar will taint delicate and edible goods which therefore should not be stowed in the same compartment. Thorough ventilation of sugar cargoes, especially raw or partly refined sugar is very important. When receiving considerable quantities of sugar it often is necessary to separate one parcel from another.

II. Answer these questions.

What things should be taken into consideration in planning the stowage of goods?
How should inflammable or explosive goods be stowed?
How should the cargo be stowed if it is consigned to several ports?
What is the master to do in case of shortage of goods?
In accordance with what document is the cargo taken on board the vessel?
What types of lights may be exhibited from lighthouses?
What is the lateral system used for?
How is the ship hove into her berth?
What dangers may threaten the ship’s safety?
What information should be entered into the Log Book? Whom by?

Variant 13

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Each package making up a shipping consignment must be distinguished by mark which is known as the leading mark and is necessary for identification of the goods. All relevant documents must also bear this mark. Each package is then recorded on a tally sheet against the respective leading mark and generally, at the same time, measured for computation of tonnage for the purpose of charging freight. Freight is generally assessed on the weight or measure of cargo with variations, whichever is the greater. Freight is sometimes charged on the value of the goods instead of weight. This is known as Ad Valorem freight.

2. When a shipper puts goods on board he receives a written receipt for the goods which have been received on board. This receipt is issued by or on behalf of the ship to the shipper. When the shipper collects the bills of lading he will hand the mate's receipt to the shipowner. When a mate's receipt is issued it is prima facia evidence of receipt of the goods in the order and condition marked on the mate's receipt.

3. When loading operations are completed the agent, or master of the vessel, applies for a clearance of the ship at the local Customs house. This clearance is not given until the Collector of Customs is satisfied that documentary evidence has been produced to testify that the cargo is in order, the necessary permits have been procured, and Customs formalities complied with. The officer issuing the clearance must also satisfy himself that harbour and light dues have been paid, and that emigration and port health regulations have been carried out.

II. Answer these questions.

What properties should the vessel retain after loading the cargo?
May a bill of lading be sold to another person?
What should be done to avoid damage by contamination?
What may over stowing result in?

Variant 14

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Rice should be stowed away from other goods liable to be infested by movement of insects during the voyage. The dunnaging of a rice cargo has to be very thorough and requires careful supervision including the cement chocks, along which the moisture that condenses on the sides, framing etc. finds its way to the bilges. The floor and bilge dunnage should be laid in such a manner as will best ensure air circulation. All iron surfaces, including beams, bulkheads, stringers etc. with which the rice bags are likely to come into contact, are to be well covered with mats, but the use of mats at the sides over spar ceiling is to be deprecated, as they interfere with the air circulation.

2. After each package has been tallied, measured and made up into slings on the wharf apron, it is then loaded aboard ship under the supervision of the chief officer or cargo officer. Cargo has to be stowed with due regard to the sequence of discharge in order to avoid demurrage and additional labour costs, which would be incurred if the goods destined for one port were overstowed by those for the next port of call. Further, cargo should be distributed throughout the ship to facilitate speed of discharge. An additional point for consideration is the quantity and type of cargo in different holds.

3. On arrival at each port of call the respective cargo is discharged and received and stored by the appointed authority who, in turn, delivers it to the consignee on a bill when the freight has been paid. A bill of lading, being negotiable, is sometimes transferred to the consignee through a bank who will only release it after the freight and cost of the goods are settled.

II. Answer these questions.
1. 1. According to what documents does the stevedore begin discharging?
2. 2. What mechanisms are used for handling extraweights?

Variant 15

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. When it comes to securing of general cargo and cargo units on board ships, up to now very few rules and recommendations have been published. One exception is, however the classification societies’ rules for container securing arrangements. Some classification societies have developed regulations for container securing arrangements. Within these rules, formulae for calculation of the vertical, transverse and longitudinal accelerations have been established. Any of these formulae may be used when designing cargo securing arrangements for any type of cargo on board ships.

2. When the ship has completed loading specification of all cargo on board is prepared, and this is known as the ship's manifest. Copies of manifests are provided by the custom or consular authorities of the country of export and import. Separate manifests must be made out for each port of destination. The cargo plan shows in diagrammatic form the longitudinal section of the ship and each hold with its respective decks, with main consignments marked off by coloured blocks related to each port of discharge.

3. Mate's Receipts should be issued on ship's forms and numbered. Receipt books should be in triplicate forms, one copy for boat man, one for the agents, and one left in the book. If receiving from lighters or boats, receipts should not be issued until after same - including peaks - have been searched. Disputes should be investigated immediately while a recount may still be possible. When this is not done, and another means of arriving at a satisfactory solution is not available, the number in dispute should clearly be stated in words on the receipt - the number on ' which there is agreement being separately shown.

Уважаемые господа!

15 июля 2008 года, к 10.00 часам, мое судно было ошвартовано левым бортом на контейнерном терминале для произведения выгрузки.

В тот же день, 15.07.2008, к 10 часам, танкер-бункеровщик Hobi Maru прибыл и подошел к борту судна с целью швартовки. Непрофессиональное маневрирование и несоблюдение хорошей морской практики бункеровщиком, привело к тому, что Hobi Maru нанес повреждения правому борту нашего судна.

В следствиe вышеуказанного, я, от имени судовладельцев, прошу владельцев танкера-бункировщика либо фрахтователей CSAV, в качестве их нанимателей, полностью отремонтировать повреждения и/или компенсировать убытки, причиненные небрежным/непрофессиональным маневрированием.

Variant 16

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. There may on occasion be an opportunity to correct bills of lading after they have been issued if it is found that they contain inaccurate information. However, the shipowner will only be able to do this if the shipper retains all of the original bills of lading. In that situation the master can either ask for the return of the original bills so that accurate bills can be issued, he can mark the original bills with an amendment and signature, again with the shippers' co-operation, or he can issue a notice to the shippers, correcting the information. The charterer cannot forbid this.

2. When loading operations are completed the agent, or master of the vessel, applies for a clearance of the ship at the local Customs house. This clearance is not given until the Collector of Customs is satisfied that documentary evidence has been produced to testify that the cargo is in order, the necessary permits have been procured, and Customs formalities complied with. The officer issuing the clearance must also satisfy himself that harbour and light dues have been paid, and that emigration and port health regulations have been carried out.

3. Some commodities are liable to spontaneous heating, which would include:

-Coal with accompanying escape of marsh gas increases the risk or explosion, also loss of calorific value.

- Rice, oats, maize, oil seeds ‑ and other grain especially if shipped in an unripe condition, give off a great deal of moisture, causing sweat damage to the grain as well as to other goods in the vicinity.

- Fine seeds ‑ heat and germinate if stowed in a badly ventilated space or where moisture gets at them.

- Oil cake and tobacco become soft, stale and mouldy.

- Hay, wool, pepper, cocoa ‑ if wet or damp, very liable to spontaneous combustion, sweat damage and deterioration.

- Nuts, beans ‑ peculiarly liable to heat, sweat and deterioration.

Variant 17

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. On arrival at each port of call the respective cargo is discharged and received and stored by the appointed authority who, in turn, delivers it to the consignee on a bill when the freight has been paid. A bill of lading, being negotiable, is sometimes transferred to the consignee through a bank who will only release it after the freight and cost of the goods are settled.

Once the shipper or his agent becomes aware of the sailing cards or some form of advertisement, he communicates with the shipowner with a view to booking cargo space on the vessel or container. Provided satisfactory arrangements have been concluded, the shipper forwards the cargo. At this stage, it is important to note that the shipper always makes the offer by forwarding the consignment, whilst the shipowner either accepts of refuses it. Furthermore, it is the shipper's duty, or that of his agent, to supply details of the consignment; normally this is done by completing the shipping company's form of bill of lading, and the shipping company then signs the number of copies requested.

The goods are signed for by the vessel's chief officer or export wharfinger, and in some trades this receipt is exchanged for the bill of lading. If the cargo is in good condition and everything is in order, no endorsement will be made on the document, and it can be termed a clean bill of lading. Conversely, if the goods are damaged or a portion of the consignment is missing, the document will be suitably endorsed by the Master or his agent, and the bill of lading will be considered «claused» or «unclean».

2. Wherever practicable, cargo should be stowed so as to leave safe clearance behind the rungs of hold ladders and to allow safe access as may be necessary at sea.

Variant 18

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Bills of lading are made out in sets, and the number varies according to the trade. Generally it is three of four – one of which will probably be forwarded immediately, and another by a later mail in case the first is lost or delayed. In some trades, coloured bills of lading are used, to distinguish the original (signed) bills from the copies which are purely for record purposes.

Where the shipper had sold the goods under a letter of credit established through a bank, or when he wishes to obtain payment of his invoice before the consignee obtains the goods, he will pass the full set of original bills to his bank, who will in due course arrange presentation to the consignee against payment.

The shipowner or his agent at the port of destination will require one original bill of lading to be presented to him before the goods are handed over. Furthermore, he will normally require payment of any freight due, should this not have been paid at the port of shipment. When one of a set of bills of lading has been presented to the shipping company, the other bills in the set lose their value.

2. Cotton is packed in bales, pressed to varying densities. The bales are covered with coarse gunny cloths and are bound by steel, wire or rope bands.

Owing to the great risk of fire which is ever present with cotton cargoes, the handling, stowage and carriage of same calls for the greatest care and attention.

Before commencing to receive cotton, the steam or chemical fire extinguishers should be thoroughly overhauled. While loading or discharging cotton, the fire hoses should be connected and ready for use.

Wet cotton, if stowed in a confined space, will heat and deteriorate, but no danger of spontaneous ignition is to be apprehended. Wet and dry cotton should not be stowed together.

On the other hand, cotton which is or has been in contact with oil or grease is very liable to spontaneous combustion, for which reason holds and especially spar ceiling should not be painted shortly before loading cotton.

II. Answer these questions.

What properties should the vessel retain after loading the cargo?
In what cases do you use cargo hooks?
What is cotton liable to?
What does the term “broken stowage” mean?
When are the hatch cover inspections conducted?
How does the ship start her contact with a shore radio-station ?
Why is it necessary to plan the passage?

Variant 19

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Bareboat Charter Party. By this type of charter, the shipowner leases his entire vessel and the charterer has the responsibility of operating it as though it were his own vessel. As the name implies, the bare vessel is chartered. The shipowner has, for the period covered by the charter party, lost control of his vessel. The charterer pays all expenses: fuel, stores, provisions, harbour dues, pilotage, etc. and employs and pays the crew. There may, however, be a clause in the charter party that the master and the chief engineer must be approved by the shipowner. The charterer is responsible for the upkeep, preservation and safety of the vessel. Before delivery to the charterer the vessel is surveyed by representatives of both parties and the same is done on redelivery. The charter party will stipulate that the vessel must be redelivered in the same good order and condition as when delivered, ordinary wear and tear excepted. On redelivery the owner's representatives, usually the port captain and port engineer, may check the logbooks for information pertaining to groundings, striking objects and collisions.

Fuel oil in the vessel on delivery is paid for by the charterer - at the current price at the port at that time, and on redelivery, the shipowner pays for the fuel in the vessel at the current price in the port at the time.

2. Hatch cover inspections are carried out from time to time by cargo surveyors, usually, but not always, acting on behalf of charterers or cargo interests. These inspections are commonly conducted during loading or immediately before departure. Their purpose is to ensure that a particular cargo is properly loaded into the ship and adequately protected against sea water damage by the hatch covers. Hatch surveys are also made before discharging begins in order that the condition of the cargo, and the extent and cause of any wet damage can be assessed before it is disturbed.

II. Answer these questions.

What is dunnaging used for?
How should the cargo be stowed if it is consigned to several ports?
What shall the shippers guarantee to the carrier at the time of shipment?
When is the Mate’s Receipt drawn up and who signs it?
What does the Bill of Landing confirm?
What structures are lights exhibited from?
How are dangers marked?
Why should the mooring lines be constantly watched?

Variant 20

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Laydays. When the vessel on a voyage chart is in port, the expenses of the shipowner continue. At the same time loading or discharging is controlled by the charterer, who if not held to a definite number of days to complete this work, can make the stay in port long and expensive for the shipowner. For this reason, the charter party will specify a definite number of days for loading or discharging cargo; or it may specify a certain number of tons per day to be loaded or discharged.

The days are called laydays (or laytime) and are stipulated in the charter party as working days, weather working days, running days and excepted days.

If the charterer loads or discharges his cargo in less time than the number of laydays allowed, he earns dispatch money at so much a day or part of a day saved. If he takes longer to load or discharge than the number of laydays allowed, he must pay demurrage at so much a day. Both dispatch and demurrage may be the cause of much disagreement and argument in which the vessel's logbook can play an important part.

2. Road vehicles of different kinds are shipped in an increasing number at sea, as well on short trades as on long international voyages. So for example, are cargo-carrying vehicles with or without driver shipped over the North Sea and the Channel. A big number of brand new vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses, tractors and other wheel-based machines are also transported at sea. Road vehicles with drivers are mainly shipped on ferries on short routes.

3. Deck cargo should be stowed clear of hatch coamings to leave safe access for seamen. Obstructions in the access way should be painted white to make them easily visible.

II. Answer these questions.

Who is responsible for the safe and efficient handling and stowage of cargo on board ship?
What factors may cause damage to cargo?
How are fragile packages handled?
What are all cargo-lifting appliances inspected for?
What document is called Charter party?

Variant 21

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Demurrage. An equally important clause is the demurrage clause which states that if the charterer does not complete loading or discharging in the laydays allowed by the charter party, he must pay for the delay at the stipulated sum per day. Unless otherwise provided in the charter party, demurrage starts from the time loading or discharging should have been completed. All days are counted, whether or not cargo is worked, including Sundays, holidays and days not worked due to bad weather or other reasons. Once a vessel is on demurrage, it runs consecutively unless otherwise provided in the charter party.

Time Charter Party. By this charter the charterer hires the vessel and her entire carrying capacity for a specified time and for a specified sum per day, payable at specified periods. All the proper cargo space, including that for deck cargo, is at the charterer's disposal. This is sometimes referred to in a charter party as the "Full Reach and Burden" of the vessel and the charterer invariably assumes it to include any mast or deck lockers available and probably a locker or two in the mate's room.

2. Suitable precautions, such as the provision of special lifting gear, should be taken to prevent damage to places containing dangerous substances. In compartments containing cargo, having an explosion or fire risk, all electrical circuits and equipment should meet the recommendations of the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code. When loading or unloading such cargo, fire-fighting equipment should be rigged ready for immediate use.

3. When it is required to separate blocks of general cargo destined for different ports, mats are very useful for that purpose.

II. Answer these questions.

What information is included into the Charter party?
What documents are the Cargo manifests based upon?
What factors may cause damage to cargo?
Is it a good practice to use hooks with bagged cargoes?
Where should fragile packages be stowed to prevent damage from crushing?
What lights should the vessel engaged on pilotage duty exhibit?

VI. Read and translate information about one of the ports from "Guide to Port Entry”. Enclose its original text. Get ready to comment on this information and discuss it with the teacher.

Variant 22

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. When on a voyage charter it is the master's responsibility to advise the charterer or his agent, in writing, as soon as the vessel is in ail respects ready to load or discharge. This advice is given in the form of a Notice of Readiness tendered to the charterer or his agent. In some cases when a vessel is to load and she is expected at a definite hour, the company or your agent at the port may tender Notice. This is especially true if it is not required to get pratique or to clear Customs.

It is from the moment the notice of readiness has been accepted that the laydays commence, provided the ship fulfils the following conditions:

1. provided she is considered as an "arrived ship", that is, she is berthed or anchored at the place shown in the contract of carriage, and has received free pratique;

2. provided she is in all respects fit to load or discharge;

3. provided the notice has been delivered to the shippers or receivers;

4. provided the notice has been accepted.

At the port of discharge you should tender the Notice without delay. Generally, the charter party will contain a clause stating that laydays are to commence 24 hours after the master or owner has given written notice that the vessel is ready to discharge, whether in berth or not at the place ordered, such notice to be given during official office hours only. The time allowed may vary, and different charter parties may require that the Notice be tendered by the master only, or by either master, owner or agent. The 24 hours, or whatever it may be, gives the charterer time to make the necessary arrangements for discharge of the cargo.

2. When the cargo is stowed against ship’s rails or hatch coamings to such a height that the rails or coamings do not give effective protection to the crew from falling overboard or into the open hold, temporary fencing should be provided.

II. Answer these questions.

Why is it important to stow pieces as compactly as possible?
What purposes does dunnaging serve?
Who can sign the Charter party on behalf of the charterer?
What information does the Charter party contain?
What document is called the Bill of Lading?
In what case is the certificate of practice given to the ship?
What does this document allow the ship to do?
How is a vessel entered outwards?
What do you know about mooring lines?
What does the choice of the proper side for pilot embarkation depend

upon?

1. The date the Notice is tendered, known as the "reporting day", should be entered in the logbook. If for any reason the Notice cannot be tendered after arrival, the reason should be entered in the logbook. The Notice may be prepared by your agent and presented on board for your signature. There will be anywhere from six to ten copies-be sure to get one for your file.

If the 24 hours expire on an excepted holiday, laydays will begin to count at the beginning of the next working period, unless the charter party stipulates otherwise. Generally, a Notice of Readiness is required by the terms of a charter party. If there is no one to receive it, the facts should be logged and an attempt made to tender the Notice when the charterer or his agent show up, leaving the original date and time on the Notice. If the charterer, of his agent, refuses to sign the tendered Notice, or if either one avoids accepting it, claiming that the vessel is not in all respects ready to discharge or load, make an entry in the log of the reason for the refusal, advise your agent to employ a surveyor to inspect the vessel and inform the charterer or his agent that this is being done. Laydays should be counted from the time stipulated in the charter party as though the Notice had been accepted and signed when tendered.

2. The master must deliver the cargo to the person holding the bill of lading at the named discharge port. The carrier can deliver the cargo to the holder of a “bearer” bill of lading. If a bill of lading shows a consignee the person demanding delivery of the cargo must provide some evidence that it is the person identified in the bill of lading.

By way of background information, it may be useful briefly to explain the legal and commercial mechanism by which the bill of lading passes from person to person.

Variant 24

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Protest should be noted as soon as possible, certainly within 24 hours of arrival in port. and in the case of cargo protests before breaking bulk.

A "note of protest" is simply a declaration by the master of circumstances beyond his control which may give, or may have given, rise to loss or damage. Such declaration must be made before a notary public, magistrate, a consular officer, or other authority. Usually, statements under oath will be taken from the master and other members of the crew and these statements will have to be supported by appropriate log book entries. At the time of noting protest the master should reserve the right to extend it.

Manifest. There is no official form for this, which may be in ordinary manuscript, written or typed, though some shipping companies may have their own special forms for the purpose. It should contain a detailed description of the ship's cargo showing marks and numbers of packages or other units, weights or quantities, name of shipper, name of consignee (or "to order"), port of shipment, intended port of discharge, reference number of the B/L for each package or unit, name and particulars of the vessel, and the name of the master. In the case of a general cargo liner the manifest is not usually ready at the time when the vessel clears. Accordingly, the clearing officer accepts a declaration that a manifest will be delivered within 14 days.

Advance copies sent to agents of the ship abroad are useful to enable them to make preparations for berthing and unloading.

2. Where hatches will have to be opened at intermediate ports before deck cargo is unloaded, it should be stowed leaving a clear space of at least one metre around the coamings or around the part of the hatch to be opened.

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. Protests are admissible in evidence before legal tribunals and, in many cases, are essential to the establishment of a claim. In many countries, particulary on the Continent protests are received in evidence as a matter of course. In the United Kingdom, however, they are not accepted as evidence in favour of the party making the protest unless both parties consent. The chief use of a protest in the United Kingdom is to support a claim by a cargo owner against his underwriters. There is no legal necessity for a protest in the United Kingdom and legal rights are in no way affected if a protest has not been noted. On the Continent the position is different; there the noting of a protest is a condition precedent to certain legal remedies. For example, consignees cannot make a claim for cargo damage unless they protest within 24 hours of taking delivery of the goods and follow this up by a court summons within one month. The master, if he delivers the cargo and accepts the freight, will be barred from claiming the cargo's contribution in general average unless he notes protest within 24 hours and notifies the consignee that he has done so. It is not essential that a protest should be made on a special form but it is advisable and usual in practice.

2. Where there is a leakage or escape of dangerous gases of vapours from the cargo, seamen should leave the dangerous area. The area should be ventilated and tested to verify that the concentration of gases or vapours in the atmosphere is not high enough to be dangerous, before personnel are allowed to enter the area again.

II. Answer these questions.

What kind of slings are used for iron goods?
What does the No Damage Certificate certify?
How are lay days reckoned?
1. Why is it not advisable to stow the cargo of different physical and chemical properties in the same container?
2. How are containers loaded and discharged?
3. How do ships make fast to a wharf?
4. What should be ready for use on deck?
5. Of what shapes are lighthouses?
6. How many marks are there in IALA system?
7. What are “temporary “anchorages?

Уважемые господа!

Как оговорено в коносаменте №1185 от 17 го марта сего года 100 тюков хлопка должны быть доставлены вам по уплате фрахта.

По прибытии в порт я узнал от агента, что фрахт не уплачен. При данных обстоятельствах я вынужден осуществить залоговое право на груз до тех пор, пока фрахт не будет оплачен полностью.

С уважением,

Variant 26

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. In any of the circumstances enumerated below it is advisable for the master to note a protest.

- Whenever during the voyage the ship has encountered conditions of wind and sea which may result in damage to cargo.

- When from any cause the ship is damaged, or there is reason to fear that damage may be sustained.

- When through stress of weather it has not been practicable to adopt normal precautions in the matter of ventilation of perishable cargo.

- When cargo is shipped in such condition that it is likely to suffer deterioration during the voyage. In this case, however, the protest will not be effective unless the bills of lading were endorsed to show the condition of the cargo at the time of shipment.

- When any serious breach of C/P terms is committed by the charterer or his agent, such as refusal to load, unduly delaying loading, loading improper cargo, refusal to pay demurrage, refusal to accept B's/L in the form signed by the master, etc.

- When consignees fail to discharge cargo or take delivery thereof, and pay freight in accordance with C/P or B/L terms.

- In all cases of general average.

2. When different lots of bulk grain or bagged goods, the contents of which are liable to mix as a result of torn containers, are stowed together they should be separated to prevent mixture and facilitate the collection of “sweeping” from the top cargo before disturbing the next below. Honoured recipe for cargo separations, especially with grain is “use old sails and tarpaulins”.

II. Answer these questions.

What should be done to guard against lateral pressure?
When and by whom are the containers locked and sealed?
What does the "Shipped Bill of Lading" confirm?
What are the basic conditions for stowing cargo on board?
When is the Ship's Manifest prepared?
What is the Lateral system used for?
What lights should the vessel engaged on pilotage duty exhibit?
What is fast ice?
Why are floating ice formations especially dangerous?
What may the direction of streams vary with?

Variant 27

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. At the appointed time, the goods are transported to the docks accompanied by a shipping note made out in duplicate, which is the wharfinger's authority to receive the goods and store them before shipment. This note gives details of marks, references, number and description of packages, weight, measurement and port of destination. Along with this note copies of the Shipping Order and Mate's Receipt are completed.

The note is signed by the wharfinger and returned to the shipper, or his representative, who then lodges bills of lading with the shipowner or agent.

Each package making up a shipping consignment must be distinguished by mark which is known as the leading mark and is necessary for identification of the goods. All relevant documents must also bear this mark.

Each package is then recorded on a tally sheet against the respective leading mark and generally, at the same time, measured for computation of tonnage for the purpose of charging freight. Freight is generally assessed on the weight or measure of cargo with variations, whichever is the greater. Freight is sometimes charged on the value of the goods instead of weight. This is known as Ad Valorem freight.

2. Where necessary, seamen handling dangerous substances should wear appropriate protective clothing and personal protective equipment including respiratory equipment.

3. Mat separation for bulk grain is not to be relied upon, because the mats are easily displaced by men walking over them, by the stream of grain from elevator spouts, by the motion of the ship in a seaway.

II. Answer these questions.

What is a cargo plan?
What are the main principal functions of the bill of lading?
What does endorsement “Signed under protest” mean?

Variant 28

I. Translate the following text into Russian.

1. When the ship has completed loading specification of all cargo on board is prepared, and this is known as the ship's manifest. Copies of manifests are provided by the custom or consular authorities of the country of export and import. Separate manifests must be made out for each port of destination.

The cargo plan shows in diagrammatic form the longitudinal section of the ship and each hold with its respective decks, with main consignments marked off by coloured blocks related to each port of discharge.

When loading operations are completed the agent, or master of the vessel, applies for a clearance of the ship at the local Customs house. This clearance is not given until the Collector of Customs is satisfied that documentary evidence has been produced to testify that the cargo is in order, the necessary permits have been procured, and Customs formalities complied with. The officer issuing the clearance must also satisfy himself that harbour and light dues have been paid, and that emigration and port health regulations have been carried out.

On arrival at each port of call the respective cargo is discharged and received and stored by the appointed authority who, in turn, delivers it to the consignee on a bill when the freight has been paid. A bill of lading, being negotiable, is sometimes transferred to the consignee through a bank who will only release it after the freight and cost of the goods are settled.

2. Cargo should be stowed in tweendecks with due regard to the order of discharging. Guidelines should be painted around tweendeck hatchways at a distance of metre from coamings.

II. Answer these questions.

When do the laydays commence, generally?
What is the "reporting day"?
What does the Bill of Lading state?
1. What document precedes issuing Bill of Lading?
2. What is implied by the definition “Bill of Lading is a negotiable document”?
3. What are the safety instructions for crew members at mooring stations?
4. What is the aim of local regulations?
5. What is slack water? When does it occur?
6. How should the mooring lines be watched if the weather is changeable?
7. What are the ship’s actions when berthing with onshore and offshore winds?
