судно зафрахтовано
Russian to English
Bus/Financial
Transport / Transportation / Shipping
This is a clause from a supply contract for argil (глинозем).
"Покупатель оплачивает ..% каждой партии телеграфным переводом не позднее .. дней после уведомления Покупателя о том, что **судно зафрахтовано**."
"a vessel has been chartered" is the best I have so far. Is that right? It's also a little confusing, because the shipments (партии) are supposed to arrive in train cars (вагоны).
Thank you in advance for some insight into this.

shipments - партии???
всегда были 'consignments'

Тут по-любому проблема (пусть небольшая) кроется в оригинале.
Оплачивает за каждую партию (на самом деле это СУДОВАЯ ПАРТИЯ, она же SHIPMENT), но "они, грузовые партии, приходят в вагонах" — эти уже consignments, которые только после погрузки на судно станут единым целым под укрупняющим названием 'shipment'.
Слово affreightment, то вообще употребляется только в устойчивом сочетании с contract of affreightment и больше нигде не встречается, кроме как в словарях.

This translation is so obvious...
Ok, let's reward! Not 'oops', but 'what else can it be? Nothing'
Certainly, if we want to speak like brokers do...

Note from asker:
| Sergei, thanks for bringing up the correct translation of партии. I had better revisit the text and decide what to use. |
| Why oops? |
