This is the original version (as it was originally made).

Closure of bareboat charter ship’s registration by the Registrar

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);

(d)if, taking into account any requirement of the Merchant Shipping Acts (including any instrument made under them) relating to the condition of the ship or its equipment so far as it is relevant to its safety or to any risk of pollution or to the safety, health and welfare of persons employed or engaged in any capacity on board the ship, he considers that it would be inappropriate for the ship to remain registered.

(2) On closure of a ship’s registration under paragraph (1) the charterer shall forthwith surrender to the Registrar the certificate of bareboat charter for cancellation.
