Fully illustrated, with numerous real-world examples, this guide explains why a ship is placed into lay-up and the types of lay-up (hot, warm, cold, and long-term), as well as providing the reader with information on appraisal, planning, procedures at the lay-up site and reactivation. The publication also contains a chapter detailing lay-up locations across the world. It covers all types of ships including cargo and passenger (cruise) ships.
The Ship Lay-up Guide is supplemented by a 100-page Record of Lay-Up, a practical workbook covering all stages of lay-up, including:
- planning and preparation
- passage to the lay-up location
- checklist for all operational stages of a layup
- during lay-up (including periodic maintenance and lay-up records)
- reactivation.
Customs warning for customers located in the EU
If your company is located in the EU and buys a publication from Witherbys, there is a risk that a customs fee will be added to the cost of the publication. We have seen cases where the customs fee is almost the same as the price of the publication. To avoid this, you should consider acquiring BIMCO’s publications via one of the stockists working together with Witherbys. See a list of the stockists located within the EU.
