Abstract
Modern transport has advanced by leaps and bounds over the centuries. Maritime transport has also been a beneficiary of these technological advancements. However, to fully grasp these developments in transport technology, it becomes imperative for shippers and carriers to have knowledge about traditional methods of international transport. Maritime transport has been a go to mode of transport for exports since time immemorial. In the event the Master of a vessel is responsible for the loading and discharge of cargo, it becomes imperative that he and his employees have adequate know-how about the multifarious types of cargo they may carry and more importantly the methods of loading and discharge. Skilled and proficient stevedores actually handle the loading and discharge of cargo. Yet the master of the vessel may still have to supervise the work of these stevedores. However, with the coming up of Indian Carriage of Goods of Sea Act, 1925 based on The Hague Rules, 1924 the dynamics of these responsibilities stood altered.
