This document provides an overview of voyage estimating, which involves forecasting both costs and income for a proposed shipping voyage. Key aspects to consider include calculating cargo quantity based on deadweight capacity accounting for bunkers, stores and load line restrictions. Estimating time in port requires factoring loading/unloading rates, weekends/holidays, notice periods, and potential weather delays. Additional delays from bunkering or canal transits also need accounting. The goal is to produce an accurate skeleton estimate to evaluate a voyage's potential profitability.
