- The leaser would consider the launch as cancelled if the charterer does not show up after 2 hours. If there were no further instructions from the charterer, the launch would be regarded as cancelled. All agreed payment must be paid in full by the charterer. If the charterer requests to return to the destination before the scheduled time, no compensation for the remaining time is given. Extra-hours will also be charged accordingly if the overtime runs.

In all circumstances and the vessel should only sail within Hong Kong water, otherwise, the coxswain reserves the right not to set sail the vessel.
