Time Charter
Nauticas operates as a commercial operator by taking ships on time charter, where it assumes responsibility for the commercial management of the vessel during the charter period.
Under time charter agreements, the company leases vessels from shipowners for a specified period, typically one to three years, and generates revenue by sub-chartering the vessel to third parties.
