DEF

A document issued by the shipowner to the shipper, acknowledging that he has received the goods in the condition stated therein, and that the goods are in his possession and at his risk.

CONT

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."

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.
