🔍 Key Concepts

• Maritime lien – a claim against maritime property itself, not just the owner • Difference between a ship (vessel), its cargo, and the owner’s other assets on shore • What counts as maritime property that can be ‘arrested’ in admiralty law

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Is a maritime lien a claim against the person, or against the thing (the res)? • Which of the listed items can be seized (‘arrested’) in an admiralty proceeding to satisfy a claim arising from the operation of a ship? • Do maritime liens normally attach to land‑based, immovable structures like wharves, or primarily to seagoing property involved in the voyage?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which of the listed options are considered maritime property traditionally subject to arrest in admiralty (in rem). • Check whether a shipowner’s general assets on land are normally subject to a maritime lien or to a different kind of claim (in personam). • Confirm whether fixed, immovable structures like docks/wharves are treated the same as vessels and cargo for maritime lien purposes.
