87.—(1) The Registrar may, subject to regulation 101 (Service of notices), close the registration of a bareboat charter ship:—
(a)on application by the charterer;
(b)on the ship no longer being eligible to be registered;
(c)on the ship being destroyed (which includes, but is not limited to, shipwreck, demolition, fire and sinking);

(g)where the charterer of a fishing vessel supplies information requested by the Registrar, but that information is either false or incorrect or is reasonably considered by the Registrar to be insufficient;
(h)where under regulation 84 the charterer is required to notify the Registrar, and has not done so;
(i)where under regulation 51 as applied by regulation 85 a person is required to make an application, and has not done so; or
