How ship mortgage certificates, conventions, and types shape maritime financing
Q: What exactly is a ship mortgage?
A: A ship mortgage represents a secured loan where the vessel itself serves as collateral, giving the lender rights to the ship if payments aren't made, ensuring repayment through potential vessel seizure and sale.
CERTIFICATE OF MORTGAGE
Navigating the world of ship mortgages begins with understanding the certificate that formalizes this financial arrangement. This document transforms a simple loan into a powerful security instrument, protecting both lender and borrower in the unpredictable maritime environment.
The certificate establishes the vessel as collateral, creating a legal framework where the ship becomes the lender's guarantee. Without this formal documentation, lenders face significant risks in an industry where vessels can vanish

The Global Sumud Flotilla says its fleet of over 50 ships has entered the ‘high-risk zone.’
(Al Jazeera)
A Gaza-bound aid flotilla is currently sailing toward the enclave, entering a high-risk zone where previous missions have faced attacks and interceptions.
On Wednesday, Israel’s public broadcaster Kan reported that the Israeli military is preparing to “take control” of the flotilla with naval commandos and warships. Israel wont tow all 50 vessels however and will sink some at sea, Kan said.

Dr Leon Moller, expert in maritime law, examines the legal issues arising from the collision between the Solong and Stena Immaculate.
Background
When two foreign-registered ships crashed in UK waters causing the loss of a life, extensive damage to both ships and the spillage of aviation fuel into the North Sea, several questions relating to responsibility and liability aspects were raised. The collision between the Solong (container ship) and the Stena Immaculate (oil tanker) took place on 10 March 2025 close to the Humber Estuary, along the east coast of England. The Solong is registered in Portugal and the Stena is registered in the US. The captain of the Solong was arrested and charged with negligence and manslaughter.
