Towage Contracts

Towage contracts are agreements between a tugboat company and a vessel owner for towing services. These contracts detail the terms of the towing operation, including the delivery of services, payment, responsibilities, and liability. Tugboats assist larger ships in navigating harbors, docking, or moving through difficult waters. The contract outlines the scope of work, timelines, and conditions under which the tugboats operate, ensuring that both parties understand their obligations. Such contracts are essential for ensuring safety and efficiency in maritime operations.
