Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

Free Alongside (FAS) is an International Commerce term (Incoterm) that is used to describe that a seller should deliver goods to within reach of a Buyer's transportation vessel so that it may be ready to be picked up by the Buyer's vessel easily.

"FAS Name of Vessel" means that the seller should deliver the goods next to the Vessel named so that it may then be re-loaded into the vessel. The risk therefore passes to the Buyer from the Seller once this is done.
