47-2322. Delivery "ex-ship"


A. Unless otherwise agreed a term for delivery of goods "ex-ship" (which means from
the carrying vessel) or in equivalent language is not restricted to a particular ship and
requires delivery from a ship which has reached a place at the named port of destination
where goods of the kind are usually discharged.


B. Under such a term unless otherwise agreed:


1. The seller must discharge all liens arising out of the carriage and furnish the
buyer with a direction which puts the carrier under a duty to deliver the goods; and


2. The risk of loss does not pass to the buyer until the goods leave the ship's
tackle or are otherwise properly unloaded.
