Deck General USCG Q#2810 (Set 89)

What is NOT considered maritime property in a salvage claim?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option A — buoys

Aids to navigation such as buoys are government-owned property and part of the public infrastructure, making them ineligible as subjects of a private maritime salvage claim under admiralty law, unlike vessels, cargo, or semi-submerged wrecks.
