The expanded and fully updated second edition include detailed coverage of additional flag states; an examination of the implications of the ISM and ISPS Codes and the requirements of the Large Yacht Code as they relate to ship registration; a new introductory chapter describing the legal and practical requirements of ship registration; and a fresh analysis of the status and usage of national and open registries in current practice.
Ship Registration Law and Practice is fully updated and now entering its third edition. Part of Lloyd’s Shipping Law Library, it is the most authoritative guide to the theory and practice of ship registration in the most popular jurisdictions. It contains the reference material needed to submit a vessel for registration at the leading ship registries world-wide, as well as extracts from key international conventions in this area, a new statistical analysis of the world merchant fleet and Port State control rankings.
