E13 - The Shipowner's Invisible Burden: From "Strict Liability" to Modern Charts

In this episode we analyze the legal foundations of sea carrier liability at common law.

What we discuss:

The Insurer Rule: Why historic common law treated carriers as strict insurers of cargo, with only four narrow "excepted perils" to save them: Acts of God, Queen’s enemies, inherent vice, or the shipper's own fault.

The Prudent Owner Test: Discover the classic legal question used to determine if a ship is unseaworthy: "Would a prudent owner have required the defect be made good before sending the ship to sea, had they known of it?"

A Modern Twist: See how this ancient rule applies to today’s digital age. We break down landmark cases, where a simple failure to mark a warning on a digital passage plan rendered a massive container ship legally "unseaworthy."
