'Seizure' of the vessel, for possible reasons of carrying contraband cargo, or of a criminal act NOT coming from the part of the Charterer, i.e. not the fault of the Charterer, the boat is still under Charter and NOT off-Hire.

''..Certain agreed events can cause the ship to become off-hire. These are generally related to the equipment breaking down, the deficiency of the crew, and other similar causes. Such events are known as "off hire events". The ship can also be treated as being "off hire" if its performance is not as described in the charterparty, e.g., if it cannot meet the warranted speed and there is an overall loss of time on sea passages because of the slower speed. In some charters the ship becomes off-hire when the shipowner decides to put the ship into drydock during the charter period and also if there is any time lost because the vessel fails to comply with anti-pollution regulations''. All the above are faults of the Charterer, the vessel can go 'off hire'. 'Seizure' is not the Charterer's fault, more likely the Hirer's. This is not defined as contested, whether 'seizure' is because of Charterer or of Hirer.

'Seizure' of the vessel, for possible reasons of carrying contraband cargo, or of a criminal act NOT coming from the part of the Owner, i.e. not the fault of the Owner, the boat is still under Charter and NOT off-Hire.
The 'confusion', here is, that one does not know whose fault it was that the vessel was 'seized'. The Owner OR the Hirer?

off hire


Explanation:
Αποσπάσματα από το Commercial Shipping Handbook (2nd edition) by Peter Brodie

(p. 287)
If during the charter the ship or an important piece of equipment breaks down, the ship is taken off hire by the charterer. Hire money is temporarily suspended until the breakdown is repaired. In practice, hire money may continue to be paid by the charterer, and refunded after the ship comes back on hire, together with a refund covering the amount of bunkers consumed during this period. The document detailing the off hire period is called the off hire statement.

(p. 272, 1st ed.)
Off hire clause: Clause which sets out the circumstances in which hire money, payable by the charterer to the shipowner, may be temporarily suspended. These periods are known as off hire periods. The circumstances vary according to the individual contract but may include:
—inability on the part of the ship to comply with the charterer’s instructions because of damage, defect or breakdown;
—arrest of the ship for reasons unconnected with the charterers;
—loss of time for which the ship is responsible;
—drydocking (this is often provided for in a separate clause).

Από την ύλη μαθήματος:
Εκτός ναύλωσης (off-hire). Ο χρόνος, ο οποίος συνήθως μετράται σε ημέρες, στη διάρκεια του οποίου υπάρχει αναστολή πληρωμών ναύλων λόγω μη διαθεσιμότητας του πλοίου για να πραγματοποιήσει εμπορική διαδικασία, πχ. λόγω βλάβης ή προγραμματισμένης συντήρησης.
