"Cost and Freight" means that the seller chooses the ship and pays the ocean freight up to the named port. The seller carries out the loading on the ship as well as the export customs formalities if required. Delivery is accomplished when the goods are on board the ship at the port of loading. The transfer of risks for loss or damages to the goods occurs once they are on board the vessel; and the buyer must bear all costs. 5, record 1, English, - cost%20and%20freight

Transport en commun fluvial pour la ville de Bordeaux [...] L'agrément et le confort sont des valeurs mal intégrées dans la conception des transports en commun. En réaction, le transport individuel a connu un très fort développement. Les limitations qu'il connaît aujourd'hui amènent à chercher d'autres solutions, comme la voie navigable, aux avantages multiples : transport de surface, non soumis à la circulation routière, il traverse la ville; il offre des espaces généreux sans impliquer d'infrastructures onéreuses. 3, record 5, French, - transport%20de%20surface
