Cargo is any commodity that earns freight and charter hire to ship. Transporting cargo is ship's business. Can any ship carry any cargo? NO. Ship must be suitable and fit enough to carry any particular cargo. This ability of ship is the cargoworthiness. 4 segments in carriage by ship: load the cargo, stow the cargo, preserve the cargo condition and no damage/harm to ship till handing over to receiving port, unload the cargo. Ship's ability to meet the rigors of each of these segments must be demonstrated before cargo is given to a ship. Thus the cargoworthiness of the ship will be established.
