In this chapter, the term owner includes a charterer that mans, supplies, and navigates a vessel at the charterers own expense or by the charterers own procurement.

(Pub. L. 109–304, §6(c), Oct. 6, 2006, 120 Stat. 1512.)

The words In this chapter are substituted for within the meaning of the provisions of title 48 of the Revised Statutes relating to the limitation of the liability of the owners of vessels because of the codification of title 46, United States Code. The word supplies is substituted for victual for clarity. The words and such vessel, when so chartered, shall be liable in the same manner as if navigated by the owner thereof are omitted as unnecessary.
