Award N° 1116 – Synacomex c-p – Vessel failing to arrive at loadport – Cargo shortage. The arrest of a vessel as a guarantee against cargo damages cannot be understood as being a «restraint of Princes» and does not entitle the owner to fail to present her at the next loading port. When the c-p provides for stevedores to be Master’s servants, the owner is liable for cargo damage and shortage due to bad stevedoring operations.
