In a bill of lading there might be a clause known as general liberty to carry on deck clause which reads“Carrier has liberty to carry GOODs on deck”．This clause frequently gives the carrier the option of stowing the cargo either on or under deck，while also exempting the carrier from all liability for loss of or damage to cargo stowed on deck．

A clause of this type is an option，not a statement．The problem arises when the bill of lading contains this clause，but the face of the bill of lading does not state that the cargo was loaded on deck．Under such circumstances，it would appear that deck carriage is unjustifiable for at least two reasons：a）The general liberty to carry on deck clause is merely an option to carry on deck，a choice which the carrier ordinarily does not make．If the bill of lading does not bear a statement on its face giving notice that the cargo is actually stowed on deck，then by default the option has been exercised in favour of under deck carriage．b）The typewritten or handwritten wording on the face of a bill of lading has precedence over the bill&39;s printed clauses．And a clean bill of lading，because it implies under-deck stowage，is functionally equivalent to a typewritten or handwritten notation on the face of the document calling for carriage below deck．A clean bill of lading therefore overrides the printed liberty to carry on deck clause．

A general deck carriage clause without a statement on the face of the bill of lading that cargo is carried on deck is merely an option not exercised and the deck carriage is therefore a fundamental breach of the contract and the Rules．

材料：

When a clean bill of lading has been issued，estoppel arises or，in other words，the carrier is prevented from proving，as against a third party relying on the clean bill of lading，that there was any thing wrong．In the case of inherent vice，however，which is a natural defect in the thing shipped，the carrier is not estopped by his clean bill of lading，because a clean bill of lading，in stating that a certain cargo is on board，gives sufficient notice that this cargo，in the natural course of events，may have certain qualities or defects which all similar cargo normally has．For example，a cargo of flour will shrink slightly，and this fact does not have to be noted on the face of the bill of lading．

Similarly，where cargo is unfit to withstand the ordinary incidents of the contractual voyage contemplated by the parties，owing to some inherent vice or hidden defect presented within it，the carrier is not estopped by the clean bill of lading from asserting the inherent defect exception，provided that the damage has not been aggravated by any conduct of the carrier or those for whom he is responsible．

The carrier issuing a clean bill of lading is only bound by his statements as to the outward condition of the cargo and is therefore not estopped from proving inherent vice or hidden defect when that vice or defect was not apparent at the time of shipment．In other words，a clean bill of lading does not necessarily fulfill the shipper&39;s burden of proof in respect to inherent vice or hidden defect．
