🔍 Key Concepts

• Maritime liens priority in an admiralty court sale • Difference between preferred maritime liens and preferred mortgages • Special status of salvage and seamen’s wages/maintenance and cure

💭 Think About

• Think about which types of claims the law protects most strongly to encourage safety and protect seafarers. • Ask yourself: in a forced sale of a vessel, which claimant must be satisfied before others to keep vital maritime services functioning? • Compare how "mortgage" liens usually rank versus traditional maritime liens like salvage, repairs, and crew-related claims.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which of the four is considered a preferred maritime lien under admiralty law. • Verify whether seamen’s wages/maintenance and cure rank above or below salvage in many priority schemes. • Confirm that a vessel mortgage often comes after certain maritime liens, not before them.
