Question
However, in the academic literature, there is a rival explanation that hinges, not on the damage to the bargain, but on the status of the contractors. Quite simply, in the Herne Bay Steamboat case, Hutton was a Southampton businessman who contracted for the hire of The Cynthia as a commercial venture. Hutton did not hire the vessel for his own pleasure; he was planning to take paying customers around the fleet; the contractual purpose was purely for profit. The position in Krell v Henry was quite different. Henry did not hire the room for business reasons; he wanted it in order to view the coronation procession. From a 21st century perspective, the reason for the different, and seemingly contradictory, outcomes in the two cases is glaringly obvious. The Herne Bay Steamboat case involves [...] where the reasonable expectation is that the hirer takes the risk that there might not be as much profit in the venture as he hoped for. By contrast, in Krell v Henry, the deal is more akin to a consumer contract where the consumer-hirer can reasonably expect to enjoy a heightened level of protection against the unanticipated events that occurred.
