98. Liabilities of ship not recognised
Where a Saint Lucian ship is by this Act required to be registered, then such a ship, if not so registered, shall not be entitled to any benefits, privileges or advantages usually enjoyed by a Saint Lucian ship, so however that as regards the payment of dues the liability to fines and forfeitures and the punishment of offences committed on board such ship, or by any person belonging to such ship, shall be dealt with in the same manner in all respects as if the ship was a recognised Saint Lucian ship.
