The ship in the last question is due to proceed to the UK from a continental arrival port, but is delayed. What are the Notice Clause requirements of a standard Unlimited Trading Voyage Agreement in such a case?

If the voyage is not ended within 7 days after the ship has arrived at the first port of call in the country specified in the Notice Clause, then after the expiry of that period any crew member who has served for at least 6 calendar months may give at least 48 hours’ notice to the master to terminate his engagement at that port or a subsequent port of call before the final port. If the voyage is not ended within 14 days after the ship has arrived at the first port of call in the country of final destination, then after the expiry of that period any member of the crew who has served under this Agreement for a minimum period of 3 calendar months may similarly give notice.
