为方便船东掌控船舶的商业营运，期租租约通常包含条款，要求租家先递交预计还船通知，之后再递交确切还船通知。
在近期的Maestro Bulk Ltd v Cosco Bulk Carrier Ltd (The “Great Creation”) [2014] 案中，英国高院需要考虑以下问题：
“租约规定租家需递交还船通知，如果‘还船通知’不充分，该如何评估损失？”

In a recent case called Maestro Bulk Ltd v Cosco Bulk Carrier Ltd (The “Great Creation”) [2014], the English High Court was asked to consider the following question:
“Where a time charterparty provides for charterers to give notice of redelivery, what is the correct approach to damages when redelivery takes place with insufficient notice(s)?”
