Article 14 of the Salvage Convention

Article 14 of the Salvage Convention addresses the rights of salvors, those who help save ships or cargo in distress. It specifies that when a salvor successfully saves a vessel or its cargo, they are entitled to a reward, which should be fair and based on several factors. This includes the value of the saved property, the danger involved, and the effort made by the salvor. Essentially, it establishes that those who assist in rescuing maritime property should be compensated fairly for their risks and efforts.
