If a mortgage covers both a vessel and other property, this chapter's rules don't apply to the non-vessel property. The mortgagee cannot use an in rem lawsuit against that other property to enforce the mortgage.
If a mortgage covers a vessel plus other property that isn't a vessel, this chapter does not let the mortgagee bring an in rem civil action — a lawsuit against the property itself — to enforce the mortgage against that additional, non-vessel property.
