What is a charterparty?

What will be an ideal response?

A charterparty is a contract for the hire of an entire ship for a particular voyage or a set period of time. Oil, sugar, grain, ores, coal, and other bulk commodities are almost always shipped under such contracts. The Hague and Hague-Visby Rules do not apply to charterparties unless a bill of lading issued by the shipowner comes into the hands of a third party. The charterer and the owner are free to set the terms of their contract, and commonly they use standardized contracts drafted at various conferences and known by such code names as Baltime and Gencon.
