This study describes the seller's duty to deliver the goods in conformity with the contract. The purpose of this study is twofold: to analyze the seller's principal duty, comparing the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods(CISG) with Sale of Goods Act(SGA) and to provide legal and practical advice to contracting parties who consider CISG or SGA as a governing law. This paper first considers the requirements for the conformity with the contract, which means contractual requirements agreed between parties and implied requirements not agreed between parties. Following this, the exclusion of the seller's duty to deliver the goods required by the contract is described. Finally, this paper ends up giving contracting parties legal and practical advice.

This study primarily concerns the Sale and Supply of Goods to Consumers Regulations 2002, focusing on the newly amended rules of the Sale of Goods Act(1979). It describes and analyzes the provisions of Regulations 2002 in a comparative way in order to provide legal advice to the sellers who plans to enter into English consumer markets. It also attempts to compare the rules of Regulations 2002 with those of CISG and to evaluate them in light of the discipline of Law and Economics the basic question of which is whether a solution from one jurisdiction may enhence 'efficiency', serving the goal of reducing negotiation costs through providing a set of default terms, and through imposing an efficient solution which may assist value maximizing exchange where disputes arise.

선박건조계약은 일반적으로 각 당사자의 권리와 의무 및 상대방에 대한 책임 등에 대하여 내용이 상당히 복잡하고 구체적으로 규정되며, 계약의 최종 목적은 선박 건조자가 완성된 선박을 매수인인 선주에게 이전하는 것이다. 이 계약은 영국법, 미국법, 개정독일민법(BGB), 그리고 기타 여러국가의 법에서 매매계약으로 보고 있으며, 반면에 한국과 일본 그밖의 여러국가에서는 도급계약으로 취급한다. 특별히 최근 여러 국가에서 안전상 사람에 대하여 상해를 일으킨 경우, 불법행위에 의한 제조자의 제조물책임이 잘 정착되어 있는 실정이다. 반면, 제3자에 대한 순수 경계적인 손실에 대해서는 그 물건의 소유자에게 그 책임이 확대되었다. 해사사건에 있어서 계약상 워런티나 묵시적인 워런티를 위반한 경우, 사건의 장소나 전통적인 해사 관련성에 의하여 해사재판관할권이 적용되어 진다. 즉 물품의 하자와 관련된 사건인 경우, 계약법상 워런티가 첫째 유형으로 적용되고, 불법행위에 의한 것은 두 번째 유형으로 적용된다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 먼저 선박건조계약상 건조자의 계약책임에 대하여 영국법을 중심으로 고찰하고 다음으로 영국, 미국, 독일, 그리고 한국의 제조물책임법을 비교하여 결론적으로 각국들의 제조물책임에 대한 한국 조선소들의 대응전략을 제시함을 본 논문의 목적으로 한다

The fact that one of the parties to the sale contract has had to pay demurrage to the shipowner under LD clauses in the charterparty does not of itself mean that he can recover that loss from his sale counter party under the sale contract: the route to such recovery is through express clauses in the sale contract itself. LD clauses in a sale contract stand free and independent of their counterparts in the relevant charterparty. LD clauses in a sale contract should be construed and applied as clauses in sale contracts, not as adjuncts to charterparties. Their interpretation should therefore be coloured not by decisions on laytime and demurrage in charterparties, but by their relationship to the contractual duties of CIF and FOB sellers and buyers. The results discussed here have implications for the drafting of LD clauses in sale contracts. If unwelcome surprises are to be avoided, it seems to advisable to start from the principle: what exactly do traders want or need in LD clauses. They need a clause which covers them against charterparty losses where those losses are the result of dealy caused by the counterparty to the sale contract. The parties to the sale contracts are well advised to prepare LD clauses concentrating on that purpose and bearing in mind the followiing questions. First, should the loading and discharge code in the sale contract appear in traders' or trade associations' standard terms and conditions or should they be left to ad hoc negotiation in contract sheets? Second, should that code be as complete as possible, covering loading or discharge periods or rates, demurrage and despatch, or is it enough for only some of those matters to be covered explicitly, leaving other matters to be governed" as per charterparty"? Third, does the introduction or incorporation of a stipulation for the giving of a notice of readiness make the start of laytime more or less predictable as between seller and buyer? Finally should a loading and discharge code in a sale contract actully be called a "laytime and demmurrage clauses"?
