Resumo
The purpose of this treatise is to analyze what happens with those ships that remain for more than six months berthed, moored, or anchored in the same place without noticeable activity and how they are regulated by national and international laws. All this has important consequences for both the crews and the ship. Undoubtedly the abandonment puts the crew in a difficult situation, cutting off their income and increasing their expenses. On the other hand, with regard to the consequences for the ship, once the abandonment procedure has been resolved, it will be sold in public auction and the proceeds of the sale will be deposited in the public treasury. In short, the consequences of abandonment can be personal and material not counting situations of an environmental nature. The methodology used in the analysis involves the use of scientific, legal, and social methods.
