REVENUE FROM TIME CHARTERS | 14 - REVENUE FROM TIME CHARTERS Total voyage revenue includes revenue earned on time charters, including revenue earned in vessel pools and spot market-related time charters, as well as the sale of bunkers consumed during short-term time charters. For the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company earned $38,249 and $20,131 of voyage revenue, respectively. Included in voyage revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 was $1,383 and $4 of net profit sharing revenue, respectively. Future minimum time charter revenue, based on vessels committed to noncancelable time charter contracts as of May 5, 2017, is expected to be $24,016 for the remainder of 2017 and $2,702 for 2018, assuming off-hire due to any scheduled drydocking and that no additional off-hire time is incurred. For drydockings, the Company assumes twenty days of offhire. Future minimum revenue excludes revenue earned for the vessels currently in pool arrangements and vessels that are currently on or will be on spot market-related time charters, as spot rates cannot be estimated, as well as profit sharing revenue.
