It was held the hull insurers was entitled to serve a notice cancelling cover as long as it exercised its discretion in good faith and on grounds which could not be challenged for being totally illogical and without reason such that no sensible person would have come to the same opinion. The Court said it was not impossible for hull insurers to have reasonably formed an opinion that continuance of cover would expose to them to risk of insurers being in breach of the sanctions.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\">To conclude, if it was not unreasonable based on the available information for insurers to form an opinion they would be exposed to a risk of not complying with the Sanctions, the insurers would be entitled to terminate cover even though it may be later proven that the insurer&#8217;s decision may have been based on a incorrect assumption or understanding of the circumstances.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\">It is therefore important that if any vessel decides to trade to Iran, that a detailed investigation is carried out by expert third parties such as lawyers and cargo surveyors to ensure the voyage and shipment is lawful, in order to avoid Hull insurers and P&amp;I Clubs exercising their right to terminate cover.
