When is it salvage and when is it stealing?

It's salvage when either the owner agrees to pay a salvage award ie
payment for service based on difficulty, not based on the value of the
vessel and/or goods saved OR the vessel has been abandoned, and the
would-be salvor meets all the obligations of a person(s) undertaking
salvage operations. This latter topic would be worth exploring, since
a lot of people have rather odd ideas about what "salvagers" can get
away with (much less curious misconceptions about the obligation to
aid fellow seafarers in peril, and what the intent of a "Good
Samaritan" law is).

An interesting topic, thanks for starting this thread JL

Thanks for restating the obvious.

If you have to include:
(formerly known as Eagle Eye)

I have to wonder why you don't either just post under the new name or revert to
the old one. This seems kind of dopey. If the old name is so important, why use
a new one?
