Seamen's lien
Claims for wages by seamen occupy a preferential place in the echelon of maritime liens, and indeed, a bedrock of maritime law is that seamen's wages are sacred liens, so that as long as a plank of the ship remains, the sailor is entitled, against all other persons, to the proceeds as a security for his wages. Admiral Cruise Services, Inc. v. M/V ST. TROPEZ, 2007 WL 4324817 (2007)
