Customs collectors, surveyors, and federal marshals must seize any pirate-outfitted vessel described in section 385 that they find in their port or district, and handle it the way that section requires.

Customs collectors at ports of entry, surveyors at ports of delivery, and marshals of U.S. judicial districts must seize any vessel or boat that was built, purchased, fitted out, or held for piracy as section 385 describes, whenever they find it within their own port or district. They must then have it dealt with — prosecuted and disposed of — exactly as section 385 requires.
