Abstract
In principle an arrest of a vessel can be effected for any type of claim. Every creditor of the shipowner can arrest the ship irrespective of the nature of his claim (i.e. whether it arose out of the shipping activities of the shipowner or not). Arrest can also be made by the creditors whose claims arise out of the exploitation of the vessel by a third person (charterer by demise) not the actual owner. Therefore, arrest of a vessel can be effected:
-
(i)
against the shipowner for any type of claim (maritime or not), and
-
(ii)
against the charterer by demise only for claims arising out of shipping activities in regard to the vessel in question.
