Crew Gratuities are left solely at the Charterer’s discretion. Brokers generally suggest to Charterers that a gratuity calculated between 5% and 10% of the contracted gross Charter Fee only is appropriate if the crew has given excellent service.

However, if the CHARTERER should choose to re-charter the Vessel within this two-year period via another bona fide Broker, to whom the commission is being paid, the OWNER shall pay a commission of one-third (l/3rcl) of the full rate to the original Broker and twothirds (2/3rds) to the new Broker.
