Where a contract of carriage by sea provides explicitly that a specified part of the carriagecovered by the said contract is to be performed by a named actual carrier other than the carrier, thecontract may nevertheless provide that the carrier shall not be liable for the loss, damage or delay indelivery arising from an occurrence which takes place while the goods are in the charge of the actualcarrier during such part of the carriage.
