What is NOT considered maritime property in a salvage claim?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option D — light-vessels
Salvage law applies to maritime property, which includes vessels, cargo, and freight. Light-vessels, however, are considered aids to navigation owned and maintained by the government for public safety. They are not subject to salvage claims because they are not commercial maritime property in the traditional sense.
