REYES, J. |

| A charter party has two types. First, it could be a contract of affreightment whereby the use of shipping space on vessels is leased in part or as a whole, to carry goods for others. The charter-party provides for the hire of vessel only, either for a determinate period of time (time charter) or for a single or consecutive voyage (voyage charter). The shipowner supplies the ship's stores, pay for the wages of the master and the crew, and defray the expenses for the maintenance of the ship.[37] The voyage remains under the responsibility of the carrier and it is answerable for the loss of goods received for transportation. The charterer is free from liability to third persons in respect of the ship.[38] | |||||

CORONA, J. |

| Petitioner and MCCII entered into a "voyage charter," also known as a contract of affreightment wherein the ship was leased for a single voyage for the conveyance of goods, in consideration of the payment of freight.[14] Under a voyage charter, the shipowner retains the possession, command and navigation of the ship, the charterer or freighter merely having use of the space in the vessel in return for his payment of freight.[15] An owner who retains possession of the ship remains liable as carrier and must answer for loss or non-delivery of the goods received for transportation.[16] | |||||
