A tramp steamer is a ship that carries freight, traveling from port to port caring small mixed loads to various destinations. They're schedule is pretty unstructured and if they happened to pick up a load that was going to a certain destination that paid better then the loads they were already scheduled to deliver, they would blow them off to get the money maker done first.
