Abstract

This paper deals with charters of yachts and boats for pleasure (recreational crafts). General provisions of cahrterparties are set out in the Law on obligatory relationships, 2005. The charter of recreational craft has not been regulated by the Maritime code. Based on important constituents which define it, a craft charter is the charter in which a charter company agrees to lease a craft (yacht or boat entered in the yacht/boat register for commercial purposes) to the charterer for use and he/she agrees to pay a hire. The parties in the craft charter are craft owner or operator, the person named a charter company in the Regulations on boats and yachts, and a charterer is a person who uses the recreational craft for pleasure. The terms that need to be complied with by the charter company are regulated by the provisions of the Maritime administrative law. There is a proposal for the regulation of the recreational craft charter within the Maritime code.
