MARINE INSURANCE ACT 1906 - SECT 42



42.(1) Where the subject-matter is insured by a voyage policy "at and from" or
"from" a particular place, it is not necessary that the ship should be at that
place when the contract is concluded, but there is an implied condition that
the adventure shall be commenced within a reasonable time, and that if the
adventure be not so commenced the insurer may avoid the contract.

(2) The implied condition may be negatived by showing that the delay was
caused by circumstances known to the insurer before the contract was
concluded, or by showing that he waived the condition.
