The general approach of English contract law is generally to decline to define the contract for the parties: the parties are free to set out the terms of their contract as they wish, and the law is slow to modify their bargain by implying terms or obligations into it. Nevertheless, the law has developed to recognise two well-defined categories of charterparty to a degree where it is now difficult or even impossible to depart from that framework. There is recognition in literature that the time or voyage charterparty paradigm is not immutable; but courts, when offered the opportunity to recognise the sui generis character of a particular charterparty, have consistently declined to do so, reverting instead to the safe paradigm. This chapter considers the evidence for and against the existence of hybrid charterparties in practice, and concludes that the categories developed through practice have become so firm as to be immutable.

The term “uniform law” refers to all international legal instruments designed to apply identically in different States.3 Among these various instruments, international private law conventions create rules uniformly applicable in the contracting States in order to avoid the disparate treatment caused by domestic legislation applied through a conflicts-of-laws mechanism. One of the advantages of such a system is that by increasing legal certainty, it encourages the development of international trade. Adopting a set of uniform rules proves ineffective, however, if the courts hearing cases in the different countries that are party to these conventions do not apply these rules uniformly.4 And yet, we can all cite several examples of divergent applications of international conventions. The field of transport is not immune to these discrepancies and there are many examples of divergent interpretations of international transport conventions, some of which are likely to undermine the convention’s goal of uniformity.5 The benefits of uniform interpretation are the same as those of uniform law: applying the same rule all over the world when more than one legal system is involved leads to such legal certainty that the benefits do not even seem to be discussed anymore.6 As regards the purpose of international private law conventions (that is, to apply the same rule in different countries), divergent interpretations or applications of a convention can
