Event Outline

A ship’s seaworthiness is understood as the condition of the ship and the duty of the ship owner to ensure the ship is in such a condition. It is often assume that these two conceptions form a univocal concept of seaworthiness in admiralty and maritime law across jurisdictions. However, they are fundamentally different legal conceptions, which we will examine in more specific familiar contexts (carriage of goods by sea, marine insurance, and liability for injury to seamen).
