Sažetak
Ships must be designed, constructed and maintained in compliance with the technical standards of seaworthiness provided by the international conventions, national regulations and rules of classification societies, ensuring an acceptable level of ship stability and safety, its environmental impact, etc. Classification societies supervise the ships’ technical soundness, i.e. their compliance with the respective technical standards, through a specific system of inspections and certification. There are a number of classification societies, the leading ones being the members of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) promoting the new unified technical standards for ships, internal quality management systems and the members’ code of ethics. The class certificate, inter alia, serves as a proof of a ship’s sound condition upon contracting the hull or P&I insurance. Commonly, the insurance cover or the insurer’s obligation to indemnify under the insurance contract is subject to the ship’s class being maintained. Change, suspension, discontinuance, withdrawal or expiry of the ship’s class may lead to a termination of insurance, exclusion of the insurers obligation under the insurance contract or a similar legal consequence negatively affecting the coverage. The standard marine insurance clauses containing the special terms regarding the ship’s class shall be analysed hereunder. The aim, nature and effect of such terms shall be discussed in the context of Croatian law and comparatively in the foreign laws governing the most common standard marine insurance clauses, particularly the Institute clauses, P&I rules and the Norwegian Marine Insurance Plan.
