When the boat note is signed by the cargo officer aboard the ship, it becomes a "mate's receipt." With many shipping companies it is the practice to give an official "mate's receipt" irrespective of the fact that a boat note may be provided by the shipper. Modern practice is to present a copy of the shipping note as the boat note, which when endorsed, becomes the "mate's receipt." 3, record 1, English, - mate%27s%20receipt
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The mate's receipt is qualified or foul if it contains adverse comments on the condition of the goods, and clean if it does not. 2, record 1, English, - mate%27s%20receipt
