Description
This appeal attacks a decree allowing to Libelant Pickard the sum of $20,215.80 as maritime liens against the M/V EDA, a beautiful vessel at one time the presidential yacht for a one-time president of Venezuela. While this case is in rem against the yacht and must be judged on applicable principles of maritime liens, it is but one phase of a many fronted controversy between Pickard and his former associates in what was hoped to be an advantageous purchase of the EDA for an even more advantageous and prompt resale. Like many other such ventures, this one foundered leaving now flotsam and jetsam as the subject of the quarrel.
