    6.           Drydocking/Divers
      Inspection

     

    
      	
              b)**

            	
              (i)
                The Vessel is
                to be delivered without drydocking.  However
                the Buyers have the right to carry out an inspection of the vessel’s
                underwater parts with class approved
                divers

            

    

    
      	
               

            	
              prior
                to the delivery of the vessel.  Should the Buyers choose to
                exercise this right then the Buyers shall arrange at their expense an
                inspection of the underwater parts by a class approved diver in the
                presence of a representative of both Buyers/Sellers together with
                a
                class surveyor who is to be arranged by
                Sellers. 
                The Sellers shall
                at their

            

    

    cost
      make
      the Vessel available for such inspection.  The extent of the
      inspection and the conditions under which it is performed shall be to the
      satisfaction of the Classification Society. 

     

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

     

    If
      the
      conditions at the port of delivery are unsuitable for such inspection, the
      Sellers shall make the Vessel available at a suitable alternative place nearby
      at their own expense.  Should such movement delay the vessel beyond
      her cancelling date, then same

    shall
      be extended to allow for this inspection.  If any damage is found to
      the vessel’s

    underwater
      parts which in the opinion of the class surveyor affects the vessels clean
      class

    then:

    A)
      If class requires the immediate drydocking of the vessel, then the drydocking
      clause herein shall be fully reinstated into this agreement and the vessel
      is to
      be docked accordingly at the Sellers expense before delivery. In this case
      the
      cancelling under this agreement shall automatically be extended by the duration
      of the entire repair period (including waiting time/deviation/gas freeing time,
      etc.) but not over four weeks. The Buyers shall then have the right to carry
      our
      their own works at their risk and expense and without causing any delays to
      the
      Sellers’ works and not interfering with same. The Buyers have the right to
      attend the drydocking without interfering with the Sellers or the class
      surveyors works. Should the Buyers’ works delay the undocking beyond the time
      that the Sellers’ works are completed, then provided that the vessel is in all
      other respects ready for delivery in accordance with this agreement, the Sellers
      have the right to present the Notice of Readiness whilst the vessel is in the
      dock.  In any event the Sellers shall remain responsible for the
      undocking costs even if the vessel is delivered to the Buyers in the
      dock.

     

    B)
      in the case of a class recommendation or condition calling for the repair of
      such defects at a later state or at the next class scheduled drydocking, then
      the Sellers shall pay the Buyers a mutually agreed lumpsum compensation figure
      covering the cost of such works but excluding all drydock dues unless the vessel
      is required by class to drydock before its next schedule drydocking in which
      case estimated drydock costs to be included in lumpsum

     

    settlement.  If
      this figure cannot be mutually agreed the Buyers and the Sellers are to obtain
      a quotation for the repairs from two first class shipyards near to the
      delivery port and the compensation is to be the average of these two
      quotations.

     

    (ii)  If
      the rudder, propeller, bottom or other underwater parts below the deepest load
      line are
      found
      broken, damaged or defective so as to affect the Vessel’s class, then unless
repairs
      can be carried out afloat to the satisfaction of the Classification Society,
      the
      Sellers shall arrange for the Vessel to be drydocked at their expense for
      inspection by the Classification Society of the Vessel’s underwater parts below
      the deepest load line, the extent
      of
      the inspection being in accordance with the Classification Society’s rules. If
      the rudder, propeller, bottom or other underwater parts below the deepest load
      line are found broken, damaged or defective so as to affect the Vessel’s class,
      such defects shall be made good by the Sellers at their expense to the
      satisfaction of the Classification Society
      without condition/recommendation*. In such event the Sellers are to pay
      also for the cost of the
      underwater inspection and the Classification Society’s attendance.

     

    (iii)
      If
      the Vessel Is to be drydocked pursuant to Clause 6 b) (ii) and no suitable
      drydocking
      facilities are available at the port of delivery, the Sellers shall take the
      Vessel to a port where suitable drydocking facilities are available,
      whether within or outside the delivery range as per Clause 5 b). Once drydocking
      has taken place the Sellers shall deliver the Vessel at a port within the
      delivery range as per Clause 5 b) which shall, for the purpose of this
      Clause, become the new port of delivery. In such event the cancelling date
      provided for In Clause 5 b) shall be extended by the additional time required
      for the drydocking and extra steaming, but limited to a maximum of 14 running
      days.

     

    c)           If
      the Vessel is drydocked pursuant to Clause 6 a) or 6 b) above

     

    (i)
      the
      Classification Society may require survey of the tailshaft system, the extent
      of
      the survey being to the satisfaction of the Classification surveyor. If
      such survey is not required by the Classification Society, the Buyers shall
      have
      the right to require the tailshaft to be drawn and surveyed by the
      Classification Society, the extent of the survey being in accordance with the
      Classification Society’s rules for tailshaft survey and consistent with
      the current stage of the Vessel’s survey cycle. The Buyers shall declare
      whether they require
      the tailshaft to be drawn and surveyed not later than by the completion of
      the
      inspection by the Classification Society. The drawing and refitting of the
      tailshaft shall be arranged by the Sellers. Should any parts of the tailshaft
      system be condemned or found defective so as to affect the Vessel’s class, those
      parts shall be renewed or made good at the

     

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Sellers’
      expense to the satisfaction of the Classification Society without
      condition/recommendation*.

     

    (ii)
      the
      expenses relating to the survey of the tailshaft system shall be borne
      by the Buyers unless the Classification Society requires such
      survey to be carried out, in which case the Sellers shall pay these expenses.
      The Sellers shall also pay the expenses if the Buyers require the survey
      and parts of the system are condemned or found defective or broken so as to
      affect the Vessel’s class*.

     

    (iii)
      the
      expenses in connection with putting the Vessel in and taking her out of
      drydock, including the drydock dues and the Classification Society’s fees
      shall be paid by the Sellers if the Classification Society issues any
      condition/recommendation* as a result of the survey or if it requires
      survey of the tailshaft system. In all other cases the Buyers shall pay the
      aforesaid expenses, dues and fees.

     

    (iv)
      the
      Buyers’ representative shall have the right to be present in the drydock, but
      without interfering with the work or decisions of the Classification
      surveyor.

     

    (v)
      the
      Buyers shall have the right to have the underwater parts of the Vessel
      cleaned and painted at their risk and expense without interfering with
      the Sellers’ or the Classification surveyor’s work, if any, and without
      affecting the Vessel’s timely delivery. If, however, the Buyers’ work in drydock
      is still in progress when the Sellers have completed the work which the
      Sellers are required to do, the additional docking time needed to complete
      the Buyers’ work shall be for the Buyers’ risk and expense. In the event that
      the Buyers’ work requires such additional time, the Sellers may upon completion
      of the Sellers’ work tender Notice of Readiness for delivery whilst the Vessel
      Is still In drydock and the Buyers shall be obliged to take delivery In
      accordance with Clause 3, whether the Vessel is in drydock or not and
      irrespective of Clause 5 b).
