A merican Club Circular No . 20 / 24 1 SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 CIRCULAR NO. 20/24 TO MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION Dear Member: PROJECT CARGOES Your Managers have noted that on occasion Members are carrying project related cargoes, either alone or together with other cargoes. Project cargoes are dimensionally challenged, heavy, and complex pieces of equipment that are generally large, heavy-duty, and high value. They require considerable planning and specialized transport equipment for lashing and securing. Such complex and high value cargoes should require a marine warranty survey (MWS) which is typically provided for under the terms of the charter party and normally the responsibility of the Charterers. Members are strongly advised to check, where applicable, that the MWS has indeed been carried out. As always, the Managers stand ready to respond to any inquiries that Members might have regarding the foregoing issues. Yours faithfully, Dorothea Ioannou, CEO Shipowners Claims Bureau, Inc., Managers for THE AMERICAN CLUB
