Definition of Ship

A vessel cannot be registered as a British ship unless she belongs wholly to British subjects, or to a corporation formed under and subject to the laws of, and having its principal place of business in, the British Empire. The ownership of every registered ship is divided into sixty-four shares, all of which may belong to one person, but not more than sixty-four persons can be registered as part-owners of any one ship. Not more than five persons may be registered as jointowners of any ship or share. (Merchant Shipping % Act, 1894.)
