🔍 Key Concepts

• Maritime property in salvage law generally relates to things that are part of or directly connected to a vessel at sea • Think about what objects are usually the subject of a marine salvage award (ship, cargo, gear, etc.) • Consider which option is less likely to be treated as property exposed to perils of the sea in the traditional salvage sense

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: which of these items is not typically treated as a ship or appurtenance (equipment) of a ship, or cargo carried by a ship? • Which option is least likely to require towing or recovery from marine peril in the same way as a disabled vessel or its cargo? • Think about whether the item is normally self‑propelled, carried by a ship, or permanently fixed in place.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which of these are commonly listed as subjects of salvage: ship, cargo, freight, and related gear or equipment • Check whether any of the options is usually a fixed aid to navigation rather than movable property needing rescue • Confirm which item would most likely be handled under a different legal framework than ordinary marine salvage.
