| description | Throughout centuries of conquest, trade and new horizons discovered, sea-going. vessels have always been the most important device in every maritime voyage. The specific statute of vessels within maritime ventures justifies the fact that they have always been coveted by maritime investors or creditors, as they have been considered the symbol of riches. The covetous attitude towards vessels in maritime law forces seamen to be very protective towards their property: they give them affectionate names, personalities (in English grammar, 'ship' is the only word having a gender), a statute, an object needing protection: She becomes the apple of their eye. Even if today, the dimension of our world, the Globalisation of our trade, our new consumption habits have drastically modified the mission of ships and vessels at seas, one element still links our contemporary world to our maritime past: the economic value of the ship. |
