QUESTION 2 – 10 MARKS
A shipbuilder had contracted to build a tanker for North Ocean Tankers. The
contract was in US dollars and didn’t contain any provisions for currency
fluctuations. Approximately halfway through construction of the ship, the United
States devalued its currency by 10 per cent. As the shipbuilder stood to make a loss
on the contract, it demanded that an extra US$3 million be paid or it would stop
work. The buyer reluctantly agreed under protest to pay, as he already had a charter
for the tanker and it was essential that it be delivered on time. The buyer didn’t
commence action to recover the excess payment until some nine months after
delivery. Will the buyer succeed in recovering the excess?
