Il est utile d'établir la distinction entre la notion «salvage dues» et «rights of salvage» même si leur équivalent est «droits de sauvetage». Dans ce cas-ci, il s'agit des indemnités que le sauveteur doit recevoir du propriétaire du navire à la suite de son sauvetage. 3, record 1, French, - droits%20de%20sauvetage
