In support of its response in opposition to the\n\n above-referenced filings, Seacoast states as follows:\n\n INTRODUCTION\n\n On May 21, 2026, the Court ordered the sale of the Defendant M/V SLOW UR ROLL II\n\n (the \u201cVessel\u201d). [DE 70.] On June 26, 2026, the United States Marshals Service conducted the\n\n court-ordered sale of the Vessel at the Fort Lauderdale Federal Courthouse. After numerous rounds\n\n of competitive bidding by many of the ten registered bidders, the Vessel ultimately sold to William\n\n Wilson for $160,000.00, who provided a certified check deposit at the time of sale [DE 87], and\n\n subsequently deposited the remaining sale price with the U.S. Marshal.\n\n Stratmann, proceeding pro se, now asks the Court to refuse confirmation of a well-attended\n\n and competitive judicial sale. He believes the Court should order a new judicial sale under onerous\n\n minimum bid requirements, or impose extraordinary post-sale conditions. The Objections are\n\n based on speculation, an unsigned declaration, incorrect factual assertions, a two-year old\n\n unverified appraisal by an appraiser who did not even turn on the Vessel, and mischaracterized or\n\n hallucinated legal authority. None of the Objections provides a valid basis for relief.\n\n The Objections do not establish any defect in the Marshal\u2019s sale, do not identify competent\n\n evidence of fraud, collusion, mistake, or irregularity, and do not provide a legally sufficient basis\n\n to delay confirmation or require an evidentiary hearing, or permit post-sale discovery.\n\n ARGUMENT AND INCORPORATED MEMORANDUM OF LAW\n\n I. The District Court Has Jurisdiction to Confirm the Sale\n\n Although Stratmann has appealed the Court\u2019s Orders denying his claim for seaman\u2019s\n\n wages, denying his motion to vacate default, and denying his motion to stay judicial sale [DE 79,\n\n\n\n\n 2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 3 of 12\n\n\n\n\n 84, 88], Stratmann\u2019s notice of appeal does not divest this Court of jurisdiction to confirm the June\n\n 26, 2026 sale of the Vessel.\n\n The divestiture rule is limited: a notice of appeal transfers jurisdiction only \u201cover those\n\n aspects of the case involved in the appeal.\u201d Griggs v. Provident Consumer Discount Co., 459 U.S.\n\n 56, 58 (1982); Johnson v. 3M Co., 55 F.4th 1304, 1309, 1319 (11th Cir. 2022) (\u201cThe district court\n\n has authority to proceed forward with portions of the case not related to the claims on appeal\u201d and\n\n lacks jurisdiction only where a district court action would \u201calter[ ] the status of the case\u201d on appeal)\n\n (internal citations omitted); Boyd v. Secretary, Dept. of Corr., 114 F.4th 1232, 1238 (11th Cir.\n\n 2024) (the district court has jurisdiction to rule \u201con collateral issues or in aid of the appeal.\u201d). An\n\n appeal does not strip the district court of authority to perform post-judgment ministerial,\n\n enforcement, or sale-administration functions that implement an existing judgment and do not alter\n\n the orders under appellate review.\n\n Here, the contemplated confirmation order would implement the Default Judgment and\n\n sale procedures set forth therein. [DE 70.] It would not reconsider the orders noticed for appeal,\n\n which struck Stratmann\u2019s asserted seaman\u2019s wage claim, denied his motion to vacate, and denied\n\n his emergency motion to stay the sale. [DE 79, 84.] Nor does the notice of appeal operate as a\n\n stay. See U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Comm. v. Escobio, 946 F.3d 1242, 1251 (11th Cir.\n\n 2020) (\u201cAbsent entry of a stay, a district court retains jurisdiction to enforce its judgment . . . during\n\n the pendency of an appeal.\u201d).\n\n \u201cA stay is not a matter of right, even if irreparable injury might otherwise result.\u201d Nken v.\n\n Holder, 556 U.S. 418, 433 (2009) (citation omitted). In evaluating whether a stay pending judicial\n\n review is appropriate, courts should consider four factors: \u201c(1) whether the stay applicant has made\n\n a strong showing that he is likely to succeed on the merits; (2) whether the applicant will be\n\n\n\n 3\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 4 of 12\n\n\n\n\n irreparably injured absent a stay; (3) whether issuance of the stay will substantially injure the other\n\n parties interested in the proceeding; and (4) where the public interest lies.\u201d Id. at 434 (citation\n\n omitted). \u201cThe first two factors of the traditional standard are the most critical. It is not enough\n\n that the chance of success on the merits be \u2018better than negligible.\u2019 \u201d Id. See also Huntington Nat'l\n\n Bank v. M/Y SOMETHING ABOUT MERI, No. 0:25-CV-61018-WPD, 2026 WL 1664108, at *1\n\n (S.D. Fla. Apr. 29, 2026) (denying stay of judicial confirmation of vessel sale pending appeal).\n\n Here, the first factor weighs heavily against staying judicial confirmation of the sale\n\n pending appeal. Stratmann is unlikely to succeed on the merits of his appeal, given his lack of\n\n standing and the lack of merits in prevailing on his untimely \u201cseaman\u2019s wage\u201d claim that is the\n\n basis for his appeal, given that Stratmann as a matter of law is not a stranger to the vessel, as\n\n required to be a seaman. Moreover, only money damages are at issue therefore \u201cirreparable injury\u201d\n\n under factor two is unlikely, and factors three and four also weigh heavily against the stay, given\n\n that the purchaser, the mortgagee, and the substitute custodian will be prejudiced by the delay, and\n\n it is in the public interest to promptly confirm sales. See Wong Shing v. M/V Mardina Trader, 564\n\n F.2d 1183, 1189 (5th Cir. 1977).\n\n Accordingly, the Court has jurisdiction to consider and overrule the Objections, confirm\n\n the sale, and enter such further orders as are necessary to complete the sale process.\n\n II. The Objections Are Procedurally Defective\n\n Local Admiralty Rule E(17)(g) governs objections to a sale of a vessel in this Court. In\n\n particular, the rule requires that any party who objects to the sale of a vessel must deposit with the\n\n U.S. Marshal \u201cthe cost of keeping property for at least fourteen (14) days.\u201d See Local Admiralty\n\n Rule E(17)(g)(ii). Proof of the deposit with the Marshal\u2019s Office shall be delivered to the Clerk of\n\n\n\n\n 4\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 5 of 12\n\n\n\n\n Court\u2019s Office by the moving party. Id. \u201cThe Court will not consider the objection without proof\n\n of this deposit.\u201d Id.\n\n There is no evidence in the court record that Stratmann has made the requisite deposits\n\n with the U.S. Marshal, and therefore his Objections cannot be considered by the Court and should\n\n be denied outright. Furthermore, Stratmann also failed to serve the U.S. Marshal with the\n\n Objections, as required by Local Admiralty Rule E(17)(g)(i).\n\n Because Stratmann has failed to comply with the procedural requirements for objections\n\n under the Local Admiralty Rules, his Objections should be overruled.\n\n III. The Objections Do Not Establish a Basis to Disturb the Marshal\u2019s Sale\n\n Admiralty courts may consider objections before confirmation, but \u201cextreme caution\u201d is\n\n required before disturbing a sale duly conducted under the court\u2019s decree. Wong Shing v. M/V\n\n Mardina Trader, 564 F.2d 1183, 1188 (5th Cir. 1977). The recognized grounds for setting aside\n\n an admiralty sale are narrow: fraud, collusion, or gross inadequacy of price that amounts to fraud\n\n or unfairness. Id. As such, the objecting party must present competent evidence of a legally\n\n cognizable defect that affected the sale process.\n\n The Objections do not meet that burden. Stratmann relies largely on his own assertions and\n\n an unsigned proposed declaration, neither of which warrant delay of confirmation or an evidentiary\n\n hearing. The sale was conducted by the United States Marshal at the federal courthouse, pursuant\n\n to the Court\u2019s sale process. [DE 70.] Ten bidders registered to bid in the sale, and the auction\n\n generated twenty total bids for the Vessel in addition to the Plaintiff\u2019s opening credit bid of\n\n $50,000. Before closing bidding, the U.S. Marshal called out \u201cgoing once\u201d and \u201cgoing twice,\u201d\n\n providing multiple opportunities for any competing bidder to submit a higher bid. The Objections\n\n\n\n\n 5\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 6 of 12\n\n\n\n\n do not identify any defect in the Marshal\u2019s authority, the Marshal\u2019s conduct of the sale, the bidding\n\n procedure, or the notice of sale, sufficient to invalidate the sale.\n\n Stratmann\u2019s allegations are especially insufficient because they seek extraordinary relief\n\n after a completed judicial auction. Setting aside a Marshal\u2019s sale would prejudice the successful\n\n purchaser, Seacoast, the substitute custodian, and the orderly administration of this admiralty\n\n proceeding. The Objection offers no competent record basis for that result.\n\n IV. Stratmann Lacks Standing to Object to Confirmation of the Marshal\u2019s Sale\n\n Stratmann cannot revive his participation in the case through an objection to sale\n\n confirmation based on personal dissatisfaction with the auction result. The Court has already\n\n dismissed Stratmann\u2019s claim of interest and struck his answer [DE 53], and struck Stratmann\u2019s\n\n claim for seaman\u2019s wages [DE 79]. Further, as this Court has already made clear in several of its\n\n orders [DE 15, 53, 61], Stratmann may not use his status as sole member and manager of Starboard\n\n Yacht Group LLC (\u201cSYG\u201d) to assert SYG\u2019s rights as the owner of the Vessel, pro se.\n\n Stratmann\u2019s claimed individual interest in alleged proprietary evidence aboard the Vessel\n\n likewise does not confer a right to block confirmation of the judicial sale. The Objections do not\n\n establish ownership, possession, or a superior legal right in any discrete property aboard the\n\n Vessel. Instead, they offer only broad assertions concerning alleged proprietary installation\n\n architecture, trade-secret configuration data, and physical evidence \u2013 which assertions were not\n\n timely raised and do not justify vacating a Marshal\u2019s sale of the Vessel.\n\n Furthermore, to the extent that the Objections are attempting to assert a new distinct interest\n\n in certain property aboard the Vessel, the assertion of such interests are untimely under\n\n Supplemental Rule C(6) and Local Admiralty Rule C(6), and must be denied as post-sale claims\n\n under Local Admiralty Rule E(18).\n\n\n\n 6\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 7 of 12\n\n\n\n\n Lastly, the Court has already rejected the \u201cpreservation\u201d argument by denying Stratmann\u2019s\n\n Emergency Motion to Preserve Physical and Electronic Evidence, Hold Sale Proceeds in Court\n\n Registry, and for Reconsideration [DE 82] and Emergency Motion for Stay of Judicial Sale\n\n Pending Appeal [DE 85], both of which were premised on the same alleged intellectual property\n\n and/or trade secrets. Stratmann\u2019s attempt to repackage preservation relief as an objection to sale\n\n confirmation should likewise be denied.\n\n V. The Alleged \u201cPrice Inadequacy\u201d Does Not Justify Denial of Confirmation\n\n The Objection asserts that the sale price is inadequate because Stratmann relies on a May\n\n 8, 2024 appraisal stating a market value of $1,000,000. That argument fails for several reasons.\n\n First, the appraisal is not a guarantee of value at a forced judicial sale. A court-ordered\n\n Marshal\u2019s sale is not a private retail yacht sale, and a prior appraisal does not establish that the\n\n auction price was legally inadequate. The relevant question is not whether Stratmann prefers a\n\n higher valuation, but whether there is competent evidence that the sale process was legally\n\n defective. There is none.\n\n Second, the appraisal attached to the Objection is dated more than two years before the\n\n June 2026 sale. It is not evidence of what qualified bidders were willing to pay for the Vessel at a\n\n public Marshal\u2019s auction in June 2026. It also reflects important limitations, including that the\n\n survey was conducted without a trial run and without testing equipment. The appraisal therefore\n\n does not establish that the auction price was invalid or that the Marshal\u2019s sale should be disturbed.\n\n See Wong Shing, 564 F.2d at 1189 (\u201cWhere there is no certainty that a resale will produce a higher\n\n price, the court is justified in confirming the sale. To do otherwise would prejudice the lien holders\n\n who must continue to go unpaid. Refusing confirmation in such situations would also prejudice\n\n the purchaser.\u201d)\n\n\n\n 7\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 8 of 12\n\n\n\n\n No competent declaration identifies a timely higher bid that the Marshal refused. No record\n\n evidence shows fraud, collusion, or a material irregularity in the auction. And the existence of an\n\n outdated appraisal does not overcome the public policy favoring confirmation of a fairly conducted\n\n judicial sale to the highest bidder. This Court should not ordain the \u201cfishing expedition\u201d that it is\n\n not obligated to undertake, when Stratmann has failed to produce an iota of evidence that the sale\n\n price was insufficient. See Wong Shing, 564 F.2d at 1187.\n\n VI. The Sales Agent Agreement Does Not Show an Irregularity, Conflict, or Suppression\n of Bidding\n\n The Objections argue that National Liquidators\u2019 Exclusive Sales Agent Agreement\n\n (\u201cMarketing Agreement\u201d) creates a \u201cstructural conflict\u201d because National Liquidators was both\n\n substitute custodian and commission-earning sales agent. The argument is conclusory and\n\n unsupported. The agreement, filed with the Court, states that National Liquidators would receive\n\n a reduced eight percent commission only if there was a successful third-party sale, and no\n\n commission if Seacoast credit bid the Vessel. [DE 86.] That compensation structure is aligned with\n\n the objective of obtaining a third-party cash buyer rather than requiring Seacoast to credit bid. The\n\n Objections do not explain how that arrangement harmed the estate, chilled bidding, or rendered\n\n the Marshal\u2019s sale invalid.\n\n The Objections also argue that the Marketing Agreement\u2019s execution date means National\n\n Liquidators could not have performed marketing before the sale. But the Objections offer no\n\n competent evidence that the Vessel was not marketed, that bidders lacked notice, that interested\n\n buyers were excluded, or that any person was prevented from bidding. The Objection\u2019s inference\n\n from an execution date is not evidence of a defective sale. The record is to the contrary. The\n\n agreement describes National Liquidators\u2019 role in promoting the sale through yacht-focused\n\n channels and educating potential buyers about the process. The sale occurred publicly at the federal\n\n\n 8\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 9 of 12\n\n\n\n\n courthouse. The Objection\u2019s speculation about what marketing could or could not have occurred\n\n does not warrant denial of confirmation. Moreover, the confirmation of the sale itself does not\n\n require approval of the Marketing Agreement.\n\n VII. The Unsigned Declaration Cannot Support an Evidentiary Hearing\n\n The Objection\u2019s phone-bidder theory depends on the purported declaration of Bob Wilson\n\n attached to the Objection. That document is defective on its face. It is not signed. It is not dated. It\n\n does not identify the place of execution. It leaves the execution date and location fields blank.\n\n Under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1746, an unsworn declaration may substitute for an affidavit only when it is\n\n subscribed by the declarant as true under penalty of perjury and dated in substantially proper form.\n\n The purported Wilson declaration does not satisfy that statute. The absence of a signature means\n\n there is no declaration by Wilson before the Court.\n\n Without that declaration, the phone-bidder allegations are unsupported. The Objection asks\n\n the Court to infer a bidding irregularity from Stratmann\u2019s description of a person on a phone\n\n allegedly saying words to the effect of \u201cwe missed it.\u201d That is hearsay, speculation, and not\n\n evidence that a higher bid was actually made, timely communicated, improperly refused, or\n\n prevented by the Marshal. It also does not establish collusion, fraud, or any defect in the auction\n\n process. The Court should deny the request for an evidentiary hearing because the Objection does\n\n not present competent evidence creating a genuine factual issue about the integrity of the sale.\n\n VIII. Stratmann\u2019s Allegation That the Sale Was Not Fully Funded is Moot\n\n The Objections assert that confirmation should be deferred because only a deposit had been\n\n paid and the remaining balance was supposedly unpaid. That assertion is procedurally incorrect,\n\n and also moot. An objection to confirmation of a sale (such as that filed by Stratmann) defers\n\n payment of the remaining sale price until 7 days after the Court confirms the sale. See Local\n\n\n\n 9\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 10 of 12\n\n\n\n\n Admiralty Rule E(17)(a). Thus, an objection to confirmation cannot be made on the basis that sale\n\n price has not been paid yet.\n\n Moreover, the US Marshal has advised the substitute custodian that the buyer has in fact\n\n paid the sale price. Thus, Stratmann\u2019s request to defer confirmation pending full payment should\n\n be denied as moot.\n\n IX. The Preservation Arguments Do Not Justify Delaying or Conditioning Confirmation.\n\n The Objections\u2019 preservation-based conditions should be rejected for the same reasons\n\n discussed above. They are unsupported, overbroad, and directly overlap with preservation relief\n\n the Court already denied. [DE 91.] Stratmann cannot repackage that denied relief as a sale-\n\n confirmation objection by seeking inspection, forensic imaging, alteration restrictions, or\n\n conditions on sale proceeds based on alleged evidence aboard the Vessel. Nor has Stratmann\n\n shown any ownership or superior right to separate property aboard the Vessel, or any basis to\n\n burden the purchaser with post-sale obligations tied to unrelated litigation. Any discovery or\n\n preservation relief Stratmann believes he may have in other cases must be pursued in the proper\n\n forum; it is not a basis to delay or condition confirmation of the Marshal\u2019s sale.\n\n X. The Objection Mischaracterizes and Relies on Unsupported Legal Authorities\n\n Like Stratmann\u2019s other filings, the Objection contains significant citation problems which\n\n call to question Stratmann\u2019s verification that \u201cevery case citation in this Objection has been\n\n independently verified to the reporter, volume, page, and holding stated.\u201d Specifically:\n\n \uf0b7 Friese v. Boatworks, Inc., No. 09-cv-10296, 2010 WL 1838693 (S.D. Fla. May 7, 2010) is\n not a real Southern District of Florida decision;\n \uf0b7 In re Perez does not concern Supplemental Admiralty Rule E(9) or confirmation of an\n admiralty judicial sale;\n \uf0b7 United States v. 2,116 Boxes of Boned Beef does not concern Supplemental Admiralty Rule\n E(9) or confirmation of a vessel sale;\n\n\n\n 10\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 11 of 12\n\n\n\n\n \uf0b7 In re Dierschke does not support the asserted \u201cduty to scrutinize sale price\u201d in the\n admiralty-sale context;\n \uf0b7 Deckert v. Independence Shares Corp. concerns equitable rescission of fraudulent\n securities sales, not admiralty sales or conflicted substitute custodians; and\n \uf0b7 Flury v. Daimler Chrysler Corp. concerns alleged spoliation involving a vehicle in a\n products-liability context; it does not justify delaying confirmation of a Marshal\u2019s sale\n based on Stratmann\u2019s claimed evidence-preservation concerns.\n\n The Court should not credit the Objection\u2019s legal argument where the Objection relies on\n\n non-existent or materially inapposite authorities.\n\n CONCLUSION\n\n In sum, Stratmann has not shown standing, has not submitted competent evidence, has not\n\n established fraud, collusion, mistake, or material irregularity, and has not provided valid legal\n\n authority supporting denial or deferral of confirmation. The judicial sale of the Vessel should be\n\n confirmed.\n\n WHEREFORE, Plaintiff Seacoast National Bank respectfully requests that the Court\n\n enter an order: (1) overruling and denying (I) Objection of Charles Jacob Stratmann\u2019s\n\n (\u201cStratmann\u201d), Pro Se Claimant and Party-in-Interest, to Confirmation of Judicial Sale and\n\n Request for Evidentiary Hearing (DE 92), (II) Claimant\u2019s Protest of Judicial Sale and Motion to\n\n Set Aside or Defer Confirmation of the June 26, 2026 Auction of M/V Slow Ur Roll II (DE 97) and\n\n (III) Motion for Disclosure of Bidder Identities and Auction Records, and for Order Preserving\n\n Such Records Pending Appellate Review (DE 96); (2) denying the request for an evidentiary\n\n hearing; (3) confirming the judicial sale of the M/V Slow UR Roll II; and (4) granting such other\n\n and further relief as the Court deems just and proper.\n\n\n Dated: July 7, 2026 Respectfully submitted,\n\n /s/ Amanda Klopp\n Amanda Klopp, Esq.\n Florida Bar Number: 124156\n\n 11\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 98 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 12 of 12\n\n\n\n\n amanda.klopp@akerman.com\n Jenna M.

LAUD.\n\nappurtenances, in rem,\n\nDefendant.\n\nMOTION FOR DISCLOSURE OF BIDDER IDENTITIES AND AUCTION RECORDS,\n\nAND FOR ORDER PRESERVING SUCH RECORDS PENDING APPELLATE\nREVIEW\n\nCharles Jacob Stratmann (\"Movant\"), appearing pro se as a party-in- interest in this admiralty\nforeclosure, respectfully moves this Court for an order directing the United States Marshal for\nthe Southern District of Florida to disclose all records identifying the participants in the June\n26, 2026 judicial auction of M/V Slow UR ROLL II, and to preserve all such records pending\nappellate review in the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, Case No.\n\n26-12270-G.\n\nI. STATEMENT OF FACTS\n\n1. The United States Marshal conducted a public auction of M/V Slow UR ROLL II on June 26,\n2026, at approximately 12:00 p.m. at the Fort Lauderdale Federal Courthouse (DE 87). The\nvessel sold for $160,000.00 to William Wilson, acting on behalf of QF Products LLC, Texas.\nWilson deposited $25,000.00; the balance of $135,000.00 remains unpaid (DE 87; DE 92-1).\n\n2. The vessel was independently appraised at $1,000,000.00 (Paul R. Anstey, Inc., File No.\n152568, May 8, 2024; Bates SYG-107206). The sale price is 16% of the appraised fair market\n\nvalue, leaving an 84% shortfall.\n\n3. During the auction, a telephone bidder actively competed through a young male relay person.\n\nThe contact name displayed on the phone was \"Egor.\" The relay person was unable to transmit\n\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 96 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 2 of 6\n\nthe final bid before the Marshal closed the auction. The winning bidder, William Wilson,\nconfirmed in his declaration (DE 92-1) that the phone bidder \"was actively engaged and\nbidding\" and \"was cut off by the communication delay between the auction's close and the\n\nyoung man's relay before that party could submit a higher bid.\"\n\n4, The identities of the telephone bidder, the relay person, and the principal on whose behalf\nbids were placed are material to Movant's pending Objection to Confirmation of Sale (DE 92),\nEmergency Motion to Preserve Evidence and Hold Proceeds (DE 82), and appeal to the\nEleventh Circuit (Case No. 26-12270-G). Those identities will determine whether the June 26\nauction was tainted by the same structural conflict that required vacatur in Latvian Shipping Co.\nv. Baltic Shipping Co., 99 F.3d 690 (5th Cir. 1996).\n\nI. REQUESTED DISCLOSURES\n\nMovant requests that the United States Marshal produce, within seven (7) days of this order, the\n\nfollowing records and information concerning the June 26, 2026 auction:\n\nA. Bidder Registration Records.\n\n(1) The name, address, telephone number, and email address of every person or entity that\nregistered to bid at the auction; (2) The bidder number or paddle number assigned to each\nregistered bidder; (3) The form of deposit or proof of funds provided by each registered bidder;\n(4) Any corporate or organizational affiliation disclosed by any registered bidder; and (5) A\n\ncopy of any signed bidder registration form, acknowledgment, or agreement.\n\nB. Auction Records,\n\n(1) A complete log of all bids placed, including the bidder number, amount, and timestamp of\neach bid; (2) The starting bid amount and any announced increments; (3) Any reserve,\nminimum bid, or upset price announced or established; (4) The complete audio or video\nrecording of the auction, if any exists; (5) Any notes, memoranda, or internal communications\nprepared by the Marshal or auction staff concerning the auction; and (6) Any telephone logs,\ncaller-ID records, or contact information associated with the telephone bidder known as \u201cEgor.\"\n\nC. Custodial Records.\n\n(1) All records reflecting the chain of custody of the vessel from the date of arrest through the\ndate of sale; (2) All communications between the United States Marshal and National\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 96 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 3 of 6\n\nLiquidators LLC, Seacoast National Bank, or Akerman LLP concerning the auction, marketing,\n\nor sale of the vessel; and (3) All invoices, receipts, or records of expenses charged against the\n\nvessel or the sale proceeds.\nI. LEGAL STANDARD\n\nA. The Court Has Inherent Authority to Order Disclosure.\n\nA district court exercising admiralty jurisdiction has broad inherent authority to supervise\njudicial sales and to compel production of records material to the fairness of the sale. See\nChambers v. NASCO, Inc., 501 U.S. 32, 43-44 (1991); Tramp Oil & Marine Ltd. v. Adriatic\nTankers Shipping Co., 914 F. Supp. 527, 531 (S.D. Fla. 1996) (\"[T]he bid at the Marshal's\nauction does not consummate a sale. It is the equivalent of an offer to the court, not accepted\n\nuntil judicially confirmed.\").\n\nB. Supplemental Admiralty Rule EK) Governs Sale Objections.\n\nSupplemental Admiralty Rule E(9)(d) provides that any party may file a motion to set aside a\nsale on the ground that the sale was \u201cimproperly made.\" The Court has authority to stay\nconfirmation or set aside a sale where the process was not commercially reasonable, was not\nregularly conducted, or was tainted by conflict or collusion. See In re Chateaugay Corp., 10\nF.3d 944, 956-S7 (2d Cir. 1993).\n\nC. The Identity of Bidders Is Discoverable in a Sale Challenge.\n\nCourts routinely order disclosure of bidder identities and auction records where a party\nchallenges the fairness of a judicial sale or alleges collusion. Latvian Shipping Co. v. Baltic\nShipping Co., 99 F.3d 690 (Sth Cir. 1996) (sale set aside where counsel represented both\nmortgage holder and successful bidder, chilling competitive bidding). The identity of the bidder\nnetwork is not a protected trade secret; it is a factual element of the sale process that the court\n\nhas a duty to examine before confirmation.\n\nD. Good Cause for Expedited Production.\n\nGood cause exists for expedited production because: (a) the confirmation hearing is scheduled\nfor July 3, 2026; (b) an emergency appeal is pending in the Eleventh Circuit (Case No.\n25-12279-G): \u2018c} the bidder records are in the exclusive possession of the United States\n\nMarshal; and (d) delay risks the loss or destruction of telephone logs, caller-ID records, and\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 96 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 4 of 6\n\nauction staff notes.\nIV. ARGUMENT\n\nA. The Telephone Bidder Is Material to the Sale Challenge.\n\nThe identity of the telephone bidder and the principal on whose behalf bids were placed is\ncentral to the collusion argument advanced in Movant's Objection to Confirmation (DE 92) and\nin the pending Eleventh Circuit appeal. If the telephone bidder is connected to the Ivankovich\nenterprise -- the same enterprise whose family entities are represented by Akerman LLP, the\nfirm prosecuting this foreclosure for Seacoast -- then the auction presents the same structural\nconflict that required vacatur in Latvian Shipping. The bidder records are the only means of\n\nconfirming or refuting that connection.\n\nB. The Auction Records Are Material to the Price-Inadequacy Claim.\n\nThe auction opened with a $100 starting bid on a $1,000,000 vessel. No reserve or minimum\nprice was announced. The complete bid log will reveal whether the auction was structured to\nattract competitive bidding or to suppress price. The bidder registration records will reveal\nwhether the telephone bidder was pre-qualified, whether the bidder was affiliated with any\nknown enterprise participant, and whether the same contact information appears in other\n\nenterprise-related records.\n\nC. Preservation is Required Pending Appellate Review.\n\nBecause the Eleventh Circuit appeal is pending and the district court has stated that the matter is\non appeal (DE 93), the records requested above are subject to spoilage, routine destruction, or\nloss of telephone logs. The Court should enter a preservation order directing the Marshal to\nretain all auction records, telephone logs, and bidder information in their original form pending\n\nfinal appellate disposition.\nV. RELIEF REQUESTED\n\nWHEREFORE, Iviovant respectfully requests that this Court enter an order:\n\n1.

DE 92 asked\nthe Court to decline to confirm. This Protest attacks the validity of the sale transaction itself and\ninvokes the Court's independent supervisory authority over its own officers -- the U.S. Marshal\nand National Liquidators -- to evaluate whether the auction was fairly conducted under\n\nSupplemental! Admiralty Rule E(9)(b).\n\nI. FACTS\n\nxy\n\nA. The Vessel and lis Value.\n\n\f_Case 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 97 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 2 of 7\n\n1. M/V Slow UR Roll II (USCG Official No. 1220768) is a 2008 Everglades 350LX Express,\nprofessionally appraised at $1,000,000.00 by Paul R. Anstey, Inc., Marine Surveyors, File No.\n152568, May 8, 2024 (DE 92-2). The vessel is a custom-configured technology demonstration\nplatform carrying proprietary Seakeeper gyroscopic stabilizer and Humphree trim-system\nintegrations developed under Starboard Yacht Group's trade-secret methodology and is material\n\nevidence in five pending federal cases.\n\n2. Seacoast National Bank's judgment against the vessel is $168,773.21 (DE 70).\n\nB. The June 26, 2026 Auction.\n\n1. On June 26, 2026, the United States Marshals Service and court-appointed substitute\ncustodian National Liquidators conducted a public auction of the vessel at the Fort Lauderdale\nFederal Courthouse, 299 E. Broward Blvd. (DE 87).\n\n2. The vessel was knocked down to a single bidder, William Wilson, acting for QF Products\nLLC (Texas), for $160,000.00 -- exactly 16% of the vessel's $1,000,000.00 appraised fair\nmarket value (DE 87; DE 92-2). Wilson tendered a certified deposit check of $25,000.00. The\nremaining $135,000.00 balance was due and unpaid pending confirmation. Claimant was\n\npersonally present at the auction.\n\n3. After Nations: Lignidators' claimed 8% commission ($12,800.00) and the Marshal's fee, net\nproceeds are approximately $147,135.00 -- an amount that does not satisfy Seacoast's\n$168,773.21 judgment. The sale simultaneously destroys approximately $840,000.00 in vessel\n\nequity and generates a personal deficiency against Claimant.\n\nC. National Liquidators\u2019 Same-Day Sales Agreement.\n\n1, National Liquidators was appointed substitute custodian by order entered February 25, 2026\n\n(DE 23), charged with preserving the vessel in custodia legis.\n\n2. On June 26, 2026 -- the same day as the auction -- Seacoast (through Trina Sessoms, VP) and\nNational Liquidators (frank Kups) executed the Exclusive Sales Agent Agreement (DE 86-1).\nThat agreement promised: premier placernent on VesselArrest.com and YachtAuctions.com\nreaching international buyers monthly; vessel-specific marketing pamphlets in electronic and\nhard copy; print and digital advertising in the Wall Street Journal and Financial Times; and\n\nactive brokerage outreach to domestic and international buyers.\n\n3. None of these obligations could have been performed between execution of the agreement\n\f_Case 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 97 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 3 of 7\n\nand the auction on the same day. A Wall Street Journal advertisement cannot be placed,\napproved, and published on the same morning a contract is signed. An international marketing\n\npamphlet cannot be drafted, printed, and distributed to buyers on the day of the auction itself.\n\nD. The Telephone Bidder Communication Disruption.\n\n1. During the auction, an active, registered telephone bidder was competing through a relay\nindividual physically present at the auction. Claimant personally observed the relay individual\nrelaying bids by telephone to the auctioneer throughout the active bidding period. The\n\ntelephone bidder participated in multiple rounds of competitive bidding.\n\n2. At or near the decisive moment of the auction, the relay individual suffered a disruption in\ntelephone cormraunication. The telephone bidder's final bid was not timely relayed to the\nauctioneer. The auction closed without the telephone bidder being able to resume participation.\nWilliam Wilson's winning bid of $160,000.00 prevailed not because it represented the ceiling of\ncompetitive market demand, but because the only active competing bidder was cut off at the\n\ndecisive moment.\n\n3. William Wilson was personally present and observed the same events. A declaration from\nMr. Wilson is being obtained and will be filed in support of this Protest or as a supplement\n\nthereto.\n\n4, The identities of the telephone bidder and the relay individual are known only to the United\nStates Marshals Service and National Liquidators. This Court cannot evaluate whether the\nbidding was suppressed, whether the participants were independent, or whether a pre-arranged\n\ntransaction occurred, without knowing who participated in the bidding process.\n\nI. GROUNDS FOR PROTEST\n\n1985): 2,116 Boxes of Boned Beef v. Goedert, 726 F.2d 1481, 1484 (9th Cir. 1984).\n\f_Case 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 97 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 4 of 7\n\n2. The sale is especially suspect because the net proceeds do not satisfy the judgment debt. A\njudicial sale that fails to pay the secured creditor while destroying the debtor's equity at 16 cents\non the dollar is not a fair realization of the res -- it is a de facto liquidation at the creditor's\n\nconvenience.\n\n3. The inadequate price was not the product of a fair market. It was the direct and foreseeable\n\nresult of the structural defects described below.\n\nB. The Marketing Process Was Structurally Impossible.\n\n1. The Exclusive Sales Agent Agreement (DE 86-1) was executed on the same day as the\nauction. The marketing obligations in that agreement -- Wall Street Journal and Financial Times\nadvertisements, international buyer outreach, VesselArrest.com and YachtAuctions.com\nplacement, vessel-specific marketing pamphlets -- cannot be performed in hours. They require\n\ndays or weeks of lead time.\n\n2. There ars only two possible explanations: (a) the agreement was backdated, in which case the\nintegrity of DE \u00e96-1 is in question; or (b) no marketing was performed before the auction, in\nwhich case this \u00a31,000,000.00 vessel was sold without any of the marketing the custodian\n\npromised,\n\n3. Either way, this Court should not confirm a judicial sale where the sales agent's own filed\nagreerment dernonsirates that tne marketing promised never occurred or cannot be verified. In re\nDierschke, 975 F.2d 181, 185 (Sth Cir.\n\n1) (irregularity in sale process is independent ground to refuse confirmation).\nC. The Custodian and Sales Agent Roles Created a Structural Conflict of Interest.\n\n1. National Liquidators served simultaneously as (a) the court-appointed substitute custodian,\nwith a duty to preserve the res and ensure a fair process for all parties, and (b) the exclusive\nsales agent earning an 8% commission only on a completed third-party sale -- earning nothing if\n\nSeacoast credit-bid.\n\n2. These roles ars structurally incompatible. A custodian's duty runs to the Court and to all\nparties equally. A commission-earning sales agent's financial incentive runs to closing any sale,\nat any price, to a third party as quickly as possible. The conflict materially contributed to the\n\ninadequate price.\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document97 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 5 of 7\n\n3. Courts decline to confirm sales where the conduct of the sales process was affected by a\nconflict of interest. Matter of Topgallant Lines, Inc., 154 B.R. 368, 376 (S.D. Ga. 1993);\nSupplemental Admiralty Rule E(9)(b) (court may decline to confirm a sale if the sale was not\n\n\u201cfairly conducted\u201d).\n\nD. Competitive Bidding Was Suppressed.\n\n1. An active telephone bidder was cut off at the decisive moment of the auction due to a\ncommunication relay failure. The auction result does not reflect the full competitive market for\nthis vessel. A bidder who was actively competing was effectively excluded from the final bid\n\nround by a circumstance entirely outside his control.\n\n2. A specialized $1,000,000.00 marine technology vessel would attract premium buyers from\noutside South Florida -- Gulf Coast dealers, New England buyers, Caribbean operators, and\ngyroscopic stabilizer technology investors. Adequate remote and telephone bidding capability is\nessential to realize fair value for this category of asset. The auction was conducted without\n\nmeaningful provision for sustained remote-bidder participation.\n\nkK. The Outstanding Balance Renders the Sale incomplete.\n\n1. Wilson's $135,000.00 balance remains unpaid. Confirming a sale before the purchase price is\nfully tendered transfers a $1,000,000.00 vessel on a 2.5% deposit. Supplemental Rule E(9) does\nnot contemplate confirmation of a sale where the buyer has not performed his own obligation.\n\nThe Court should not confirm the sale unti] full payment is verified.\n\njax\n\nWL. THE COURT RETAINS JURISDICTION TO HEAR THIS PROTEST\n\n1. Claimant acknowledges this Court's July |, 2026 Order (DE 93) holding that the pending\nappeal divests the Court of jurisdiction over DE 92. This Protest raises a separate and\n\nindependent basis for the Court's authority that was not addressed in DE 93.\n\n2. The filing of a notice of appeal divests a district court of jurisdiction only \u201cover those aspects\nof the case involved in the appeal.\" Weaver v. Florida Power & Light Co., 172 F.3d 771, 773\n(ilth Cir, 1990), T The merits of the underlying foreclosure judgment (DE 70) are the subject of\n\nthe appeal. The administrative question of whether the June 26, 2026 auction was fairly\n\nconducted under Supplemental Rule E(9)(b) is a post-judgment collateral matter entirely\n\nseparate from those merits.\n\f.Case 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 97 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 6 of 7\n\n3. Supplemental Admiralty Rule E(9) and Local Admiralty Rule E(17) give this Court\nsupervisory authority over its own officers -- the U.S. Marshal and court-appointed custodians\n-- that is not divested by appeal. The Court cannot simultaneously lack jurisdiction to evaluate\nthe sale it ordered while retaining jurisdiction to confirm it. If the Court lacks jurisdiction to\n\nhear this Protest, it equally lacks jurisdiction to enter a confirmation order.\n\n4. This Protest therefore invokes the Court's inherent authority to supervise the conduct of its\nown officers in executing the Final Judgrnent, authority that is collateral to and independent of\n\nthe foreclosure merits on appeal.\n\nIV. RELIEF REQUESTED\n\nWHEREFORE, Claimant respectfully requests that this Court:\n\n1. SET ASIDE the June 26, 2026 judicial sale of M/V SLOW UR ROLL II as grossly\n\ninadequate and procedurally defective;\n\n2. In the alternative, DEFER confirmation of the sale pending: (a) resolution of the pending\nappeal in the Eleventh Circuit (Appeal No. 26-12270-G); (b) full payment of the $160,000.00\n\npurchase price; and (c) an evidentiary hearing on the integrity of the auction process;\n\n3. In the further alternative, HOLD all gross sale proceeds ($160,000.00) in the Court registry\nwith no disbursement to Seacoast or National Liquidators pending resolution of the appeal and\n\nany evidentiary hearing;\n\n4. DISAPPROVE National Liquidators' 8% commission ($12,800.00) pending a showing that\n\nthe marketing obligations in DE 86-1 were actually performed;\n\n5. ORDER the United States Marshals Service and National Liquidators to disclose within five\n(5) business days: (a) the names, addresses, telephone numbers, and email addresses of all\nregistered biddeis; (b) the method of participation of each bidder (in-person, telephone, or\nthrough an agen); (c) the identity, employer, and contact information of the relay individual\n\nwho communicated telephone bids; and (d) the official bidding and registration logs;\n\n6. If the sale is set aside, ORDER a new sale with: (a) a mimimum 30-day national marketing\npericd with verifiable pre-auction advertising; (b) an independent sales agent with no custodial\ninterest; (c) suscained telephone and online bidding capability; (d) a minimum opening bid not\n\nless than 65% of the most recent professional appraisal; and (e) full disclosure of all registered\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 97 Entered on FLSD Docket 07/07/2026 Page 7 of 7\n\nbidders prior to the auction; and\n\n7.

The process tends to be confusing and intimidating to potential\n buyers. This sales plan will enhance promotion to our extensive database, and advertise your\n vessel in yachting publications, websites, and social media formats. We have experienced great\n success in the past in promoting US Marshals Sales, educating potential bidders, facilitating\n showings, and improving the overall likelihood of attracting more qualified buyers at the sale.\n\n National Liquidators (NL) will be undertaking a significant effort in promoting this event. These\n efforts will include:\n\n \u2022 Premier placement on VesselArrest.com/YachtAuctions.com and numerous related\n websites which allow posting of \u2018auctions\u2019, reaching vast international visitors each\n month. This includes all of the sites covered by Boats Group (Yacht World)\n \u2022 Vessel-specific marketing pamphlet(s), in electronic and hard copy formats, for\n distribution to interested parties. The pamphlets will be a compilation of the vessel\u2019s\n technical specifications, class certifications, recent marine survey, photographs,\n pertinent court order(s), and bid instructions.\n \u2022 Making the vessel available through our licensed brokerage team \u2013 National\u2019s sales staff\n will market the vessel to its network of potential buyers (located in both the United\n States and abroad).\n \u2022 Print and digital ads in some of the largest Media Formats ie. Wall Street Journal and\n Financial Times\n \u2022 Extensive experience in US Marshal Sales, instructing potential buyers on terms and\n conditions of the courthouse sale and facilitating showing as the custodian.\n\n NL will charge a reduced commission rate of 8 % of the gross sales price for this service. This\n agreement and approval for this commission will be filed with the court for approval as an\n administrative expense. The commission structure allows us to work with outside brokers in\n the event of a co-brokerage relationship occurs.\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 86-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/26/2026 Page 2 of 3\n\n\n\n\n It is understood that this 8 % commission will be paid only if there is a successful buyer at or\n before the US Marshal Sale to a third party, other than the plaintiff. Should the plaintiff credit\n bid the yacht at the sale, no monies are owed.\n\n\n The terms as outlined above are hereby agreed to and entered into:\n\n\n\n\n 6/26/26\n Frank Kups, National Liquidators Date\n\n\n Trina Sessoms, VP Seacoast Bank 06/26/2026\n Plaintiff Date\n Name / Title / Company\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 86-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/26/2026 Page 3 of 3\n\n\n\n\n International Associations & Affiliations\n\n\n\n\n \u2022 Canadian Maritime Law Association\n \u2022 The Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers\n \u2022 International Bar Association\n \u2022 Lloyds Maritime Academy\n \u2022 Marine Industries Association\n \u2022 Marine Money\n \u2022 Maritime Law Association (USA)\n \u2022 Maritime London\n \u2022 National Marine Bankers Association\n \u2022 National Marine Manufacturers Association\n \u2022 New York Maritime Inc (NYMAR)\n \u2022 Propeller Club\n \u2022 Southeastern Admiralty Law Institute (SEALI)\n \u2022 Lake Erie Marine Trades Association\n \u2022 Port Everglades Association\n \u2022 Fort Lauderdale Mariner\u2019s Club\n \u2022 International Yacht Brokers Association\n\f", "ocr_status": 2, "date_upload": "2026-06-26T14:20:27.028925-07:00", "document_number": "86", "attachment_number": 1, "pacer_doc_id": "051030010524", "is_available": true, "is_free_on_pacer": null, "is_sealed": null, "document_type": 2, "description": "Exclusive Sales Agent Agreement", "acms_document_guid": "" } ], "date_created": "2026-06-26T08:58:26.595800-07:00", "date_modified": "2026-07-10T09:41:07.491732-07:00", "date_filed": "2026-06-26", "time_filed": "11:48:39", "entry_number": 86, "recap_sequence_number": "2026-06-26.002", "pacer_sequence_number": 277, "description": "NOTICE of Filing Exclusive Sales Agent Agreement - Court-Ordered Sale by Seacoast National Bank (Attachments: # 1 Exclusive Sales Agent Agreement) (Klopp, Amanda) (Entered: 06/26/2026)", "tags": [] }, { "resource_uri": "https://www.courtlistener.com/api/rest/v4/docket-entries/468861350/", "id": 468861350, "docket": "https://www.courtlistener.com/api/rest/v4/dockets/72219234/", "recap_documents": [ { "resource_uri": "https://www.courtlistener.com/api/rest/v4/recap-documents/484172939/", "id": 484172939, "tags": [], "absolute_url": "/docket/72219234/85/seacoast-national-bank-v-mv-slow-ur-roll-ii/", "date_created": "2026-06-26T04:57:50.969604-07:00", "date_modified": "2026-07-10T09:41:07.944977-07:00", "sha1": "ad50720c74feeb582a057e7e55223632ef9c2265", "page_count": 11, "file_size": 580983, "filepath_local": "recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.706340/gov.uscourts.flsd.706340.85.0_1.pdf", "filepath_ia": "https://archive.org/download/gov.uscourts.flsd.706340/gov.uscourts.flsd.706340.85.0.pdf", "ia_upload_failure_count": null, "thumbnail": null, "thumbnail_status": 0, "plain_text": "Case 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 85 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/26/2026 Page 1 of 11\n\n\n\n\n FILED BY D.C.\n UN ITED STA TE S D ISTR ICT CO U R T\n 1!'y 25 2226\n - .-\n SO U TH ERN D ISTRICT O F FLO R ID A ANGEEt.A i' !.qost.E\n cuE-:Ry:t;s.olsTXr-,'n\n s.E).op'FnI..A.-FT.l-Auo.\n FOR T LA U D ERD A LE D IV ISIO N\n\n IN A D M IM LTY\n\n\n\n CA SE N O .:0:26-cv-60289-W PD\n\n\n\n SEA CO A ST N A TIO N A L BA N K ,Plaintiff,\n\n V S.\n\n M N SLOW U R R O LL Il,a 2008 Everglades 3501.X Express,O fficialN o.\n 1220768, H lN : RJD E0005l708, Together w ith a11 m asts, boilers, cables,\n engines,m achinery,etc.,in rem ,and STA RB OA RD Y A CH T G RO U P LLC ,\n a Florida lim ited liability com pany,in personam ,D efendants.\n CH A RLE S JA CO B STR ATM AN N ,C laim antand Pro Se Party-in-lnterest.\n\n\n\n C LA IM A N T 'S EM ER G E N C Y M O TIO N FO R STA Y O F JU D IC IA L\n SA LE PEN D IN G A PPEA L\n\n PURSUANT TO FED.R.CIV.P.62(b)AND FED.R.APP.P.8(a)(1)\n\n\n Charles Jacob Stratm ann, appearing solely in his individual capacity\n pursuant to 28 U.S.C.j 1654 as Claimant and Pro Se Pao -in-lnterest,\n respectfully movesthis CourtunderFederalRule ofCivilProcedure 62(b)\n and FederalRule ofAppellate Procedure 8(a)(1) for an emergency order\n staying thejudicialsale ofM /V Slow UR Rolll1,currently scheduled for\n June 26,2026,at 12:00 PM EST,pending appealofthis Court's Orders at\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 85 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/26/2026 Page 2 of 11\n\n\n\n\n DE 79 (June 23,2026)and DE 84 (entered June 25,2026).Claimanthas\n tiled a N otice ofA ppealofthose orders concurrently w ith this m otion.\n\n ln the altem ative,M ovantrequests thatallsale proceeds be deposited into\n the Court's registry and held pending resolution of the appeal and this\n Court's ruling on the still-pending Em ergency M otion to Preserve Physical\n and ElectronicEvidence(DE 824.\n\n\n 1.

Factor Tw o:Irreparable H arm\n\n 6.1 M ootness of A ppeal. lf the vessel is sold and the sale is confirm ed\n w ithouta stay,any appealof D E 79 and D E 84 risks becom ing m oot.O nce\n proceeds are distributed,the res ceases to exist and the appellate courtm ay\n lack the ability to granteffective relief.This is the paradigm atic irreparable\n harm justifying a stay.SeeDeckertv.lndependenceSharesCorp.,31lU.S.\n 282,290 (1940)(courtofequity may preserve statusquo to preventappeal\n from becomingmoot).\n 6.2 D estruction of M ovant's Personal Intellectual Property and Trade\n Secrets.Assetforth in M ovant'sDeclaration gDE 831and the independent\n marine survey by PaulR.Anstey,lnc.(Fi1e No.152568,M ay 8,2024)\n (Bates SYG-107206), the vessel contains proprietary installation\n architecture, trade-secret configuration data, and physical evidence that\n cannotbe reconstructed from docum ents alone.The installations include a\n\n\n 6\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 85 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/26/2026 Page 7 of 11\n\n\n\n\n first-of-its-kind Seakeeper SK -5 gyroscopic stabilizer m ounted on a custom\n m etal foundation over the fuel tank,a first-in-the-u nited-states H um phree\n Lighting system , and proprietary cross-system integration data stored in\n onboard controllers. The proprietary installation architecm re, integration\n m ethods,configuration data,and associated trade secrets aboard the vessel\n are the personal intellectualproperty of M ovant, Charles Jacob Stratm ann,\n individually, and are not assets of Starboard Y acht Group LLC . M ovant\n developed and ow ns this w ork product in his individualcapacity,and ithas\n never been form ally assigned to the LLC .A ccordingly,the threatened loss\n of this evidence is an irreparable harm to M ovant personally - the very\n capacity in w hich he appears in this action - independent of any claim of\n the defaulted cop orate ow ner.These item s are directly relevant to pending\n related litigation,including M ovant's individualaffirm ative trade-secret and\n intellecm al-property claim s against Seakeeper and its parent, M adison\n lndustries, and the tradem ark m atter pending in the D istrict of M aryland\n @ o.1:26-cv-01332-M JM ),in which thevesseland itsinstalled systemsare\n m aterial physical evidence that cannot be reconstructed once the vessel is\n transferred,refit, or stripped.Because this intellectual property belongs to\n M ovantindividually and notto thevessel-owning LLC,itspreservation does\n not depend on M ovant's seam an status,his m aritim e lien,or any reversalof\n this Court's prior rulings. See Flury v.

The proceeds\n rem ain available for distribution once the appealis resolved.\n\n\n 8. Factor Four:Public Interest\n\n The public interestfavors the preservation ofm aterialevidence relevant\n to pending federallitigation before itis irreversibly destroyed or transferred\n beyond the reach ofthe courts.\n 8.2 The public interest also favors perm itting appellate review of a\n substantiallegalquestion - w hether a w orking m aritim e laborerw ho holds\n a m em bership interest in an LLC vessel ow ner is categorically barred from\n seam an stat'usunder Fulcher's Point's ''w hole relationship''test- before that\n question is rendered m ootby a com pleted sale.\n\n 8.3 Federalm aritim e policy strongly favors protection of seam an's w age\n claim s.46 U.S.C.j 3l326(b)(l)establishesa priority scheme underwhich\n preferred m aritim e liens,including seam an's w ages,attach to the proceeds of\n a court-ordered sale in the sam e priority they would have attached to the\n\n\n\n 8\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 85 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/26/2026 Page 9 of 11\n\n\n\n\n vessel.

The Court agrees with Seacoast National Bank that the Emergency Motion is due to be\n\n denied as this Court already struck and denied Stratmann\u2019s verified claim for seaman\u2019s wages and\n\n held that Stratmann is not entitled to seaman\u2019s wages.

[DE 70.] The Court\n\n should deny Stratmann\u2019s Emergency Motion because (i) the Court has already struck and denied\n\n Stratmann\u2019s verified claim for seaman\u2019s wages [DE 72, 79], which is the basis for the Emergency\n\n Motion, and (ii) Stratmann\u2019s allegations regarding purported conflicts are without merit.\n\n\n\n 1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 81 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/24/2026 Page 2 of 5\n\n\n\n\n Argument and Incorporated Memorandum of Law\n\n I. The Emergency Motion Must be Denied as the Court has Already Determined\n Stratmann Has No Claim for Seaman\u2019s Wages\n\n Stratmann\u2019s Emergency Motion asks this Court to stay Plaintiff\u2019s sale of the M/V SLOW\n\n UR ROLL II (the \u201cVessel\u201d), or, in the alternative, direct that the sales proceeds be held in the\n\n Court\u2019s registry, based on his purported claim for seaman\u2019s wages. [DE 75.] However, this Court\n\n has already held that Stratmann has no valid claim for seaman\u2019s wages. [DE 79.]\n\n Stratmann previously filed the same claim for seaman\u2019s wages that he asserts in the\n\n Emergency Motion. [DE 72.] Following Plaintiff\u2019s response in opposition [DE 73], on June 23,\n\n 2026, the Court entered its Order Striking/Denying Charles Jacob Stratmann\u2019s Verified Claim for\n\n Seaman\u2019s Wages and Motion to Vacate Default Judgment, finding that, as a matter of law,\n\n Stratmann is not entitled to seaman\u2019s wages due to his relationship to the owner of the Vessel. [DE\n\n 79.] Since Stratmann\u2019s claim for seaman\u2019s wages has already been denied, the Emergency Motion\n\n should be denied as well.\n\n II. Stratmann\u2019s Allegations of Fraud on the Court are Meritless\n\n As a supplemental ground for his Emergency Motion, Stratmann alleges Plaintiff\u2019s counsel\n\n has a conflict of interest. [DE 75 at 4.] Specifically, Stratmann alleges Plaintiff\u2019s counsel\n\n \u201csimultaneously represented or represent[s] Ivankovich-family interest adverse to Starboard Yacht\n\n Group in related proceedings.\u201d Id. No particular proceeding is identified, but seemingly Stratmann\n\n is referring to the same alleged conflict raised in several of his prior filings in this action [DE 12,\n\n 17, 18, 19 , 28, 41, 43] and in his Motion in Limine to Disqualify Akerman LLP and Stay Related\n\n Foreclosure Proceedings Due to Irreconcilable Conflict of Interest filed in the unrelated action\n\n Starboard Yacht Group LLC v. Contessa Marine Research LLC, No. 23-61696-CIV-Singhal, at\n\n DE 293 (S.D. Fla. Feb. 17, 2026). On March 13, 2026, Judge Singhal ruled on the precise issue,\n\n\n 2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 81 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/24/2026 Page 3 of 5\n\n\n\n\n stating: \u201cStratmann insists Akerman LLP is involved in a conflict of interest because it represents\n\n two different clients who are litigating against Stratmann in different cases. Under no definition is\n\n this a conflict of interest \u2026 [t]his is not the law and it is not a common sense application of the\n\n law. There is no per se conflict between two or more people who both have claims against the\n\n same entity.\u201d Id. at DE 313.\n\n Nevertheless, Stratmann continues to make these false allegations against Plaintiff\u2019s\n\n counsel in a remarkably similar attempt to stay proceedings. These allegations cannot serve as a\n\n basis to stay the sale of the Vessel or interfere with the Final Judgment, and, instead, affirm\n\n Stratmann\u2019s refusal to abide by the Court\u2019s rulings, emphasize his lack of regard for the Court\u2019s\n\n time and resources, and cement his status as a vexatious litigant.1\n\n The only fraud on the Court which has taken place is Stratmann\u2019s alone. Just as the Court\n\n acknowledged in its Order Striking/Denying Stratmann\u2019s Verified Claim for Seaman\u2019s Wages and\n\n Motion to Vacate Default Judgment, Stratmann again cites to multiple inapplicable or nonexistent\n\n authorities in his Emergency Motion, including but not limited to:\n\n \uf0b7 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 11104: governing transportation and repatriation of destitute seaman.\n \uf0b7 The Ratsakatry, 101 F. Supp. 2d 139, 147 (S.D.N.Y. 2000): does not exist.\n \uf0b7 The Venticinque, 145 F. 464, 468 (2d Cir. 1906): does not exist.\n \uf0b7 Peralta v. Heirs of Peralta, 60 U.S. (19 How.) 343, 347-48 (1856): likely referring\n to U.S. v. Peralta, 60 U.S. 343 (1856) which was in regards to the verification of\n Mexican land grants in California.\n\n As explained in Plaintiff\u2019s prior response [DE 73], Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)(2)\n\n requires all motions and papers submitted to the Court to have legal contentions that are\u2013\u2013to the\n\n\n\n 1\n Florida Vexatious Litigant Law defines a pro se person to be a vexatious litigant where they repeatedly file\n \u201cpleadings, requests for relief, and other documents that have been the subject of previous rulings by the court in the\n same action\u201d or \u201cunmeritorious pleadings, requests for relief, or other documents,\u201d or engage \u201cin other tactics that are\n frivolous or solely intended to cause unnecessary delay in any action.\u201d Fla. Stat. \u00a7 68.093(c)(3)-(4). Plaintiff reserves\n the right to request sanctions from Stratmann for its costs in responding to these vexatious tactics.\n\n 3\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 81 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/24/2026 Page 4 of 5\n\n\n\n\n best of the filer\u2019s knowledge, information, and belief\u2013\u2013\u201cwarranted by existing law or by a\n\n nonfrivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new\n\n law.\u201d\n\n Consequently, by submitting the Emergency Motion containing fake citations, Stratmann\n\n again violated Rule 11(b)(2).

Because the\n\n Claim is untimely and legally unsupported, the Claim should be denied. Furthermore, because\n\n\n 87143793;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 73 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/22/2026 Page 2 of 9\n\n\n\n\n Stratmann lacks standing to file the Motion to Vacate, it should be stricken. In support thereof,\n\n Plaintiff states as follows:\n\n Argument and Incorporated Memorandum of Law\n\n I. Stratmann\u2019s Claim for Seaman\u2019s Wages Should be Stricken\n\n A. Stratmann\u2019s Claim is Untimely\n\n Stratmann, a pro se nonparty, filed the Claim as a last-ditch effort to preclude the judicial\n\n sale of the M/Y SLOW UR ROLL II (the \u201cVessel\u201d), scheduled for June 26, 2026, after his\n\n numerous failed attempts to intervene in this case. The deadline to file a claim against the Vessel\n\n was March 18, 2026. [DE 34]. See Supplemental Rule C(6) and Local Admiralty Rule C(6). On\n\n March 12, 2026, Stratmann filed a Verified Claim of Interest in Vessel Pursuant to Supplemental\n\n Admiralty Rule C(6), which made no mention of any owed seaman\u2019s wages whatsoever. [DE 41.]\n\n Previously, Stratmann asserted a claim based on his guaranty of the Vessel\u2019s obligations, his status\n\n as \u201cmanaging member of Defendant Starboard Yacht Group LLC\u201d, and his \u201cconstructive\n\n possession\u201d of the Vessel. Id at 2. Nowhere in his prior verified claim, or in his 17 other filings\n\n in this case, did Stratmann ever previously assert a claim for \u201cseaman\u2019s wages.\u201d\n\n Stratmann\u2019s prior verified claim was stricken by the Court on April 16, 2026, when the\n\n Court again found that Stratmann held no legally protectable interest in the Vessel. [DE 53.]1 Even\n\n after the Court issued its Order to Show Cause Why Motion for Default Judgment Should Not be\n\n Granted [DE 65], Stratmann still never raised any claim of seaman\u2019s wages. Instead, Stratmann\u2019s\n\n Response to Order to Show Cause [DE 67] and Response in Opposition to Plaintiff\u2019s Motion for\n\n Final Default Judgment [DE 68] merely rehashed arguments already stricken.\n\n\n\n 1\n Likewise, the Court also struck Stratmann\u2019s Motion for Reconsideration of the Court\u2019s order striking the prior\n claim. [DE 29, 61.]\n\n\n 2\n 87143793;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 73 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/22/2026 Page 3 of 9\n\n\n\n\n Despite this Court\u2019s orders, Stratmann continues to rely on his stricken claim to allege he\n\n \u201cestablish[ed] his appearance in this action and his interest in the res\u201d, without indication as to why\n\n the claim for seaman\u2019s wages was not asserted previously. [Claim at 2.] Stratmann should not, at\n\n the eleventh hour, be permitted to recast his purported claim as a wage-earning seaman in an\n\n attempt to obstruct Plaintiff\u2019s adjudicated rights. See U.S. v. $100, 348.00 in U.S. Currency, 354\n\n F.3d 1110, 1118 (9th Cir. 2004) (rejecting untimely in rem claim against property under\n\n Supplemental Rule C, where claimant was aware of proceedings but made no effort to assert claim,\n\n inform court of alleged interest, or seek enlargement of time); Navieros Inter-Americanos, S.A. v.\n\n M/V Vasilia Exp., 120 F.3d 304, 321 (1st Cir. 1997) (affirming denial of a captain\u2019s motion to\n\n intervene to assert claim for seaman\u2019s wages where he \u201chad the opportunity to make his case and\n\n did not take advantage of this chance.\u201d)\n\n B. Stratmann Has No Valid Maritime Lien as He is Not a \u201cStranger to the Vessel\u201d\n\n Timeliness aside, the Claim should be denied as a matter of law because Stratmann is not\n\n able to assert a maritime lien for seaman\u2019s wages due to his relationship to the Vessel. Stratmann\u2019s\n\n role as sole member of the corporate vessel owner, and his total operational and financial control\n\n over the Vessel, precludes his ability to obtain any maritime lien against the Vessel.\n\n The law is clear that an owner, part owner, or joint venturer of a vessel cannot hold a\n\n maritime lien against the vessel because they are \u201cnot strangers to the vessel.\u201d Sasportes v. M/V\n\n Sol de Copacabana, 581 F.2d 1204, 1207 (5th Cir. 1978)2; Fulcher's Point Pride Seafood, Inc. v.\n\n M/V Theodora Maria, 935 F.2d 208, 211 (11th Cir. 1991). \u201cMaritime liens are not available to\n\n\n\n\n 2\n See Bonner v.

Supp. 3d 1203, 1216 (S.D. Ala. 2015).\n\n Likewise, stockholders of an owner of a vessel, particularly those who are \u201cactively\n\n engaged in transacting the business of the company,\u201d cannot obtain a valid maritime lien. See The\n\n Odysseus III, 77 F. Supp. 297, 299 (S.D. Fla. 1948) (holding master and first mate of the vessel\n\n could not hold valid liens for seaman\u2019s wages against their co-owners). See also Security Pacific\n\n Nat. Bank v. Ol.s. Pacific Pride, O/N 621200, 549 F. Supp. 53, 54 (W.D. Wash. 1982)\n\n (\u201cstockholders cannot have a valid maritime lien on any vessel in which they own an interest\u201d).\n\n Similarly, corporate officers and general managers have been denied maritime liens when they\n\n have \u201cconsiderable authority over the vessel such that they are in a similar position to the owner\n\n and there would be \u201cinsuperable legal difficulties\u201d in enforcement of the lien or it would be\n\n \u201cinequitable to other claimants.\u201d Medina v. Marvirazon Compania Naviera, S.A., 709 F.2d 124,\n\n 125 (1st Cir. 1983) (per curiam). See also Winslow v. S/V \"Dancing Dolphin\", 273 F.

Medina v. Marvirazon Compania Naviera,\n\n S.A., 709 F.2d 124, 125 (1st Cir. 1983) (per curiam). Moreover, allowing owners\u2019 liens would\n\n open the door to fraud and collusion by persons owning an interest in a vessel. Security Pacific\n\n Nat. Bank, 549 F. Supp. at 54.\n\n\n 4\n 87143793;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 73 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/22/2026 Page 5 of 9\n\n\n\n\n Stratmann alleges he is the \u201csole member and manager\u201d [DE 43 at 1] and \u201cmanaging\n\n member\u201d [DE 41 at 3] of the owner of the Vessel, Defendant Starboard Yacht Group LLC\n\n (\u201cSYG\u201d). As he declared in support of his prior attempt to intervene in this lawsuit, Stratmann\n\n serves as a guarantor \u201con every SYG obligation\u201d and bears \u201cunlimited personal liability\u201d for every\n\n judgment entered against SYG. [DE 18 at 2.] Stratmann also alleged he has been in \u201cpossession\n\n and control of the Vessel at all relevant times, exercising domination over its maintenance,\n\n insurance, storage, and operation.\u201d [DE 41 at 2.] Even in his current Claim for seaman\u2019s wages,\n\n Stratmann ties his claim to his alleged former ownership of the Vessel [DE 72 at 1] (Stratmann\u2026\n\n \u201cin his individual capacity as seaman and former master and owner of [the Vessel.]\u201d) Id. (emphasis\n\n added).3\n\n In the Claim, Stratmann seeks compensation from his wholly-owned company for his own\n\n time spent in relation to the Vessel, placing himself on both sides of the alleged employment\n\n relationship\u2014as both employee and employer. Stratmann attaches no evidence of any contract for\n\n labor, no time records, and no prior demands for payment from to himself to his company. Indeed,\n\n the Claim admits that it is a reconstruction of time, rather than a contemporaneous time log. [DE\n\n 72 at 7.]\n\n It is clear that based on his own previous sworn assertions, Stratmann \u201clooks, thinks, acts,\n\n and profits like an owner.\u201d Sasportes, 581 F.2d at 1209. Unlike seamen who work on a vessel for\n\n wages, Stratmann, who failed to even keep contemporaneous records of his time, must have\n\n \u201clooked to a share in the profits\u201d for his return, and therefore he has no valid maritime lien. Fathom\n\n Expeditions, Inc. v. M/T Gavrion, 402 F. Supp. 390, 396 (M.D. Fla. 1975). Under the relevant law,\n\n\n 3\n By this filing, Plaintiff does not admit any of the allegations in the Claim and reserves all rights and defenses to\n contest the factual and legal allegations of the Claim, including raising additional legal arguments in opposition,\n should the Claim proceed to trial.\n\n\n 5\n 87143793;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 73 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/22/2026 Page 6 of 9\n\n\n\n\n Stratmann, given his membership interest and managerial role in the owner, his control over the\n\n Vessel, and his interest in profits and losses of the corporate owner, is barred from asserting a\n\n maritime lien against the Vessel.\n\n Furthermore, it would be inequitable to deprive valid lienholders, such as Plaintiff, of the\n\n proceeds from the sale of the Vessel as a result of Stratmann\u2019s alleged failure to pay himself his\n\n own wages for three years. See Medina, 709 F.2d at 125. Any services allegedly rendered by\n\n Stratmann including \u201cconstruction, operation, maintenance, testing and commercial use,\u201d [Claim\n\n at 3], were clearly in pursuit of his share of SYG\u2019s profits, not for the promise of seaman\u2019s wages\n\n which were, heretofore, never demanded. Therefore, because Stratmann cannot hold a valid claim\n\n for seaman\u2019s wages against the Vessel, as he is not a stranger to the Vessel, the Claim should be\n\n denied, with prejudice.\n\n C. Stratmann\u2019s Claim Violates Rule 11\n\n In support of his Claim, Stratmann cites only to inapplicable or nonexistent authorities,\n\n including but not limited to:\n\n \uf0b7 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 11104: governing transportation and repatriation of destitute seaman.\n \uf0b7 The Ratsakatry, 101 F.

ByoPlanet Int\u2019l, LLC, 2025 WL\n\n 2091025, at *6. The sanctions must \u201cbe limited to what suffices to deter repetition of the conduct\n\n or comparable conduct by others similarly situated.\u201d Fed. R. Civ. P. 11(c)(4).\n\n Accordingly, this Court may, as a remedy for his Rule 11 violation, strike Stratmann\u2019s\n\n Claim with prejudice, or impose other appropriate sanctions to deter his conduct.\n\n II. Stratmann\u2019s Motion to Vacate Should be Denied and/or Stricken\n\n Stratmann also asks the Court to vacate the Default Judgment Against M/V Slow Ur Roll\n\n and Starboard Yacht Group LLC [DE 70] (the \u201cJudgment\u201d), entered May 21, 2026, pursuant to\n\n Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b). [DE 72.] Stratmann alleges the Judgment should be vacated\n\n \u201cbecause a superpriority seaman\u2019s-wage claimant\u2019s rights cannot be cut off by a mortgagee\u2019s\n\n default judgment to which the wage claimant\u2019s priority was not adjudicated.\u201d [Claim at 4.] As\n\n explained above, Stratmann does not have a valid lien for seaman\u2019s wages, and for this reason\n\n alone, the Court should deny Stratmann\u2019s Motion to Vacate.\n\n\n\n\n 7\n 87143793;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 73 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/22/2026 Page 8 of 9\n\n\n\n\n Moreover, as this Court has repeatedly admonished, Stratmann is not a party to this action,\n\n is not a legal representative of a party to this action, and lacks standing to intervene or appear for\n\n any party to this action.4 Accordingly, Stratmann lacks standing to request vacatur of the\n\n Judgment. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) (\u201cOn motion and just terms, the court may relieve a party or\n\n its legal representative from a final judgment\u2026\u201d) (emphasis added). On May 4, 2026, the Court\n\n entered its Order Striking Filings, striking Stratmann\u2019s two motions for reconsideration [DE 69,\n\n 60]. [DE 61.] In the Order Striking Filings, the Court mandated that \u201c[a]ny future filings on behalf\n\n of Defendant(s) must be filed by counsel or will otherwise be automatically stricken.\u201d Id.\n\n Since Stratmann is again requesting relief on behalf of the Defendants\u2014by seeking to\n\n vacate a Judgment only entered against the Defendants\u2014the Motion to Vacate should also be\n\n stricken due to his lack of standing and failure to comply with the Court\u2019s Order Striking Filings.\n\n Conclusion\n\n WHEREFORE, Plaintiff, SEACOAST NATIONAL BANK, respectfully requests that the\n\n Court: (i) strike Stratmann\u2019s Verified Claim for Seaman\u2019s Wages [DE 72], with prejudice, (ii) deny\n\n Stratmann\u2019s Motion to Vacate Final Default Judgment [DE 72], and (iii) grant such other and\n\n further relief as the Court deems just and proper.\n\n Dated: June 22, 2026 Respectfully submitted,\n\n /s/ Amanda Klopp\n Amanda Klopp, Esq.\n Florida Bar Number: 124156\n amanda.klopp@akerman.com\n Jenna M.

In support thereof,\n\n Plaintiff states as follows:\n\n 1. On May 21, 2026, this Court entered final judgment in favor of Plaintiff and\n\n against Defendants M/V SLOW UR ROLL II (\u201cVessel\u201d) and STARBOARD YACHT GROUP\n\n LLC (\u201cBorrower\u201d) on the Complaint for in rem and in personam relief, respectively, and ordered\n\n the sale of the Vessel [DE 70] (\u201cJudgment\u201d).\n\n 2. In the Judgment, the Court ordered that Plaintiff be awarded costs, expenses and\n\n attorneys\u2019 fees, herein to be taxed. The Court reserved jurisdiction to determine the amount of\n\n attorneys\u2019 fees and costs due to Plaintiff. See Judgment \u00b6 7.\n\n\n\n\n 87245638;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 74 Entered on FLSD Docket 06/22/2026 Page 2 of 3\n\n\n\n\n 3. The deadline to file a motion to tax costs is thirty (30) days from the date of the\n\n Judgment pursuant to Rule 7.3(c) of the Local Rules for the Southern District of Florida, or by\n\n June 22, 2026.\n\n 4. Taxable costs include items such as U.S. Marshal\u2019s fees, see 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1920,\n\n which will not be determined on a final basis until after the sale is conducted. The public sale of\n\n the Vessel will occur on June 26, 2026 at 12:00 p.m., and be subject to confirmation on July 3,\n\n 2026. See Local Admiralty Rule 17(g) (providing for a 7-day objection period following sale).\n\n Accordingly, Plaintiff seeks an extension of time through and including 14 days after the\n\n confirmation of the sale of the Vessel to seek taxable costs and expenses in connection with the\n\n sale.\n\n 5. Plaintiff believes good cause for the extension exists, because it will conserve\n\n judicial economy for Plaintiff to file a single Bill of Costs encompassing all taxable costs and\n\n expenses incurred through confirmation of the sale of the Defendant Vessel.\n\n 6.

In that\n correspondence, the Lender demanded that Borrower immediately make the Vessel available for\n inspection under the terms of the Mortgage. On my telephone conversation with Guarantor\n yesterday, January 8, 2026, the Guarantor declined to reveal the location of the Vessel, or whether\n the Vessel was insured. Although Guarantor stated that the location and insurance information\n would be provided in subsequent written correspondence, the Guarantor's subsequent\n correspondence continues to withhold the requested information concerning the Vessel. The\n continuing failure to make the Vessel available for inspection is an additional default under the\n Mortgage that has continued for more than 15 days, and is therefore another basis for Lender's\n acceleration of the Loan. See Mortgage Article I, Section 9; Article II, Section 1(a).\n\n It has also come to Lender's attention that at least two lawsuits have been filed against\n Borrower, which, together with the Borrower's continued withholding of information as to the\n Vessel, has caused the Lender to believe that the prospect of payment or performance of this Note\n is impaired, and, in good faith, believes itself insecure. See Note, p. 2.\n\n The Lender reaffirms the acceleration of the Loan and demand for the balance of the Loan\n in full. Furthermore, effective January 9, 2026, the Lender hereby exercises its right to\n\n\n akerman.com\n\n\n 84969742;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 63 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/04/2026 Page 25 of 26\n\n\n January 9, 2026\n Page 2\n\n\n\n institute the default rate of interest of 18.00% per annum, in accordance with the terms\n under the Note.\n\n The balance due on the Loan as of January 8, 2026 is $143,054.75 in principal and\n $1,287.43 in interest, for a total of $144,342.18, plus attorneys' fees and costs which have accrued\n and continue to accrue (the \"Balance Due\").

Venue\n\n Venue is proper within the Southern District of Florida pursuant to the provisions of 28\n\n U.S.C. \u00a7 1391(b)(2), and under the General Maritime Law of the United States, as the Defendant\n\n Vessel is currently located within this District in Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, Florida.

Legal Standard on Default\n\n The entry of a default against a defendant, unless set aside pursuant to Rule 55(c), severely\n\n limits the defendant\u2019s ability to defend the action. While \u201ca default is not treated as an absolute\n\n confession by the defendant of his liability and of the plaintiff\u2019s right to recover,\u201d a defaulted\n\n defendant is deemed to \u201cadmit [] the plaintiff\u2019s well-pleaded allegations of fact.\u201d Tyco Fire & Sec.,\n\n LLC v. Alcocer, 218 F. App'x 860, 863 (11th Cir. 2007) (quoting Nishimatsu Constr. Co. v.\n\n Houston Nat\u2019l Bank, 515 F.2d 1200, 1206 (5th Cir. 1975)). The effect of the entry of a default is\n\n that all of the factual allegations in the Complaint are taken as true, save for the amount of\n\n unspecified damages. Thus, if liability is well-pled in the complaint, it is established by the entry\n\n of a default. Buchanan v. Bowman, 820 F.2d 359, 361 (11th Cir. 1987).\n\n C. Plaintiff is Entitled to a Default Judgment Against, and Sale of, the Vessel\n\n Local Admiralty Rule C(9) sets forth the procedural requirements that must be met in this\n\n Court where a party seeks to have a default judgment entered in an admiralty action in rem. The\n\n procedure calls for the party seeking a judgment to obtain first the entry of default, which has been\n\n entered in this case. [DE 54.] The movant must then file a motion for entry of default judgment\n\n with supporting legal documentation showing the movant\u2019s right to the requested judgment. See\n\n Local Admiralty Rule C(9).\n\n It is respectfully submitted that the present Motion, the Verified Complaint, the Affidavit\n\n of Kevin Picart in Support of Plaintiff\u2019s Motion for Default Judgment attached hereto and the\n\n Court file in these proceedings, affirmatively show that Plaintiff is entitled to judgment in its favor\n\n against Defendant Vessel, in rem.\n\n Supplemental Rule C(2) requires a complaint in rem to (a) be verified, (b) describe with\n\n particularity the property, and (c) state that the property is within the district. Here, the Complaint\n\n\n\n 8\n 86292058;3\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 64 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/04/2026 Page 9 of 18\n\n\n\n\n was verified, described the property, and alleged that it was within this district. [DE 1.] 2 Liability\n\n against the Vessel, in rem, for the debt of a preferred mortgage is provided for by 46 U.S.C. \u00a7\n\n 31325, which states in relevant part:\n\n (a) A preferred mortgage is a lien on the mortgaged vessel in the amount of the\n outstanding mortgage indebtedness secured by the vessel.\n\n (b) On default of any term of the preferred mortgage, the mortgagee may\u2014\n\n (c) (1) enforce the preferred mortgage lien in a civil action in rem for a documented\n\n vessel, . . . ;\n\n ...\n\n 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31325.\n\n A preferred mortgage, pursuant to 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31301(6), \u201cmeans a mortgage that is a\n\n preferred mortgage under section 31322 of this title.\u201d Under 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31322, a preferred\n\n mortgage is defined as a mortgage that: (1) \u201cincludes the whole of the vessel[;]\u201d (2) \u201cis filed in\n\n substantial compliance with section 31321 of this title [46]\u201d and (3) \u201ccovers a documented vessel.\u201d\n\n Section 31321 of Title 46 provides that a mortgage must be filed with the U.S. Coast Guard at the\n\n vessel\u2019s home port, and the mortgage must: (1) identify the vessel, (2) state the name and address\n\n of each party to the instrument; (3) state the amount of the direct or contingent obligations that are\n\n secured by the mortgage; (4) state the interests of the grantor, mortgagor, or assignor in the vessel;\n\n (5) state the interest mortgaged; and (6) be signed and acknowledged. See 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31321(b).\n\n In the present case, the mortgage at issue is a \u201cpreferred mortgage\u201d subject to the Ship\n\n Mortgage Act. The Mortgage was filed in substantial compliance with 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31321 by: (1)\n\n identifying the \u201cmortgaged vessel\u201d as SLOW UR ROLL II and includes its Official Number\n\n\n\n 2\n The Amended Verified Complaint was also verified and identical to the original Verified Complaint except for\n paragraph 4 which corrected a scrivener\u2019s error.\n\n 9\n 86292058;3\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 64 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/04/2026 Page 10 of 18\n\n\n\n\n 1220768; (2) identifying Defendant Borrower as the mortgagor and Plaintiff as the mortgagee, and\n\n listing their addresses; (3) identifying the total amount of the mortgage as $176,503.10; (4)\n\n identifying Defendant Borrower as the sole owner of the whole (100%) of the Vessel; (5) stating\n\n that the mortgage is on the whole (100%) of the Vessel; and (6) being signed by Defendant\n\n Borrower and properly acknowledged by a notary public. See Verified Compl. Ex. B. Moreover,\n\n the Mortgage meets the requirements set forth in 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31322 for a \u201cpreferred mortgage\u201d\n\n because it: (1) includes the whole of the vessel, id.; (2) was properly filed with the National Vessel\n\n Documentation Center in compliance with \u00a7 31321, see Verified Compl. \u00b6 12 and Picart Aff. Ex.\n\n C, and (3) covers a documented vessel, see Abstract annexed to Picart Affidavit as Exhibit C.\n\n Furthermore, Plaintiff owns and holds the Note and the Mortgage. See Verified Compl. \u00b6 21;\n\n Picart Aff. \u00b6 19. Thus, the Plaintiff has a valid preferred mortgage under 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31322.\n\n The owner of the Defendant Vessel has defaulted under the terms of the Loan Documents\n\n by, inter alia, failing to make payments as and when due, by creating incurring, or permitting a\n\n lien to be placed or imposed on the Vessel, and by mortgaging the Vessel without permission of\n\n the Plaintiff. See Verified Compl. \u00b6\u00b6 14, 15. As a result of the Borrower\u2019s default, the Note and\n\n Mortgage provide that Plaintiff may demand full payment of the unpaid principal balance, accrued\n\n interest, fees, costs, and charges, repossess the Vessel, and foreclose on the Vessel. See Verified\n\n Compl., \u00b6 16, Exs., A, B. Due to the defaults, on December 18, 2025, the balance due under the\n\n Note was accelerated. See Verified Compl. \u00b6 17, Ex. D. Borrower further defaulted by failing to\n\n make the Vessel immediately available for inspection by Plaintiff upon demand, see Verified\n\n Compl. \u00b6 18, and Plaintiff reaffirmed the demand and imposed the default rate of interest.

See Verified Compl. \u00b6 20; Picart Aff. \u00b6 18,\n\n Ex. F. Plaintiff is entitled to a judgment against the Vessel for the amount of the debt owed on the\n\n Mortgage. See e.g., Harris v.

Aug. 18, 2011).\n\n The amount of principal, interest, and late fees due have been admitted by virtue of the\n\n default of the Vessel, and supported by affidavit of Mr. Picart. See Verified Compl. \u00b6 20; Picart\n\n Aff., \u00b6 17. Further the amount of substitute custodian expenses, the expenses of repossession,\n\n arrest, insurance, and sums advanced by Plaintiff have been supported by affidavit and provision\n\n of the relevant invoices. See Picart Aff., \u00b6 18, Ex. F. The Mortgage and Note provides that the\n\n expenses in collection are recoverable. See Mortgage, Art. II, \u00b6 5 and Note, p. 2.\n\n Due to the Vessel\u2019s liability, in rem, for all debts owed on the Mortgage, see 46 U.S.C. \u00a7\n\n 31325, the Mortgage should be foreclosed, and the Vessel should be sold by the U.S. Marshal free\n\n of all claims, with the lien of the Mortgage to attach to the proceeds of sale in accordance with 46\n\n U.S.C. \u00a7 31326(b). Pursuant to Supplemental Rule E(9), \u201c[a]ll sales of property shall be made by\n\n the marshal or a deputy marshal.\u201d Under 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31326 (a), \u201c[w]hen a vessel is sold by order\n\n of a district court in a civil action in rem brought to enforce a preferred mortgage lien . . ., any\n\n\n\n 11\n 86292058;3\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 64 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/04/2026 Page 12 of 18\n\n\n\n\n claim in the vessel existing on the date of sale is terminated, including a possessory common law\n\n lien of which a person is deprived under section 31325(e)(2) of this title, and the vessel is sold free\n\n of all those claims.\u201d A preferred mortgage lien has priority over all liens and claims against the\n\n vessel, except as to expenses and fees allowed by the court, costs imposed by the court, or preferred\n\n maritime liens. See 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31326(b)(1).\n\n Therefore, the Vessel should be sold by the U.S. Marshal, free and clear of all liens and\n\n claims, with the lien of Plaintiff\u2019s Mortgage to attach to the proceeds and accorded priority over\n\n all claims except expenses and fees allowed by the court and costs imposed by the court. See Local\n\n Admiralty Rule E(18) (any claims filed after the sale shall be limited to the remnants and surplus\n\n arising from the sale).\n\n At the sale of the Vessel by the U.S. Marshal, Plaintiff should be permitted to credit bid up\n\n to the amount of its judgment. In the context of a judicial sale, courts in this District permit a\n\n plaintiff to credit bid the amount of its judgment at the auction. YCM Acquisition LLC v.

In that\ncorrespondence, the Lender demanded that Borrower immediately make the Vessel available for\ninspection under the terms of the Mortgage. On my telephone conversation with Guarantor\nyesterday, January 8, 2026, the Guarantor declined to reveal the location of the Vessel, or whether\nthe Vessel was insured. Although Guarantor stated that the location and insurance information\nwould be provided in subsequent written correspondence, the Guarantor\u2019s subsequent\ncorrespondence continues to withhold the requested information concerning the Vessel. The\ncontinuing failure to make the Vessel available for inspection is an additional default under the\nMortgage that has continued for more than 15 days, and is therefore another basis for Lender\u2019s\nacceleration of the Loan. See Mortgage Article I, Section 9; Article II, Section 1(a).\n\nIt has also come to Lender\u2019s attention that at least two lawsuits have been filed against\nBorrower, which, together with the Borrower\u2019s continued withholding of information as to the\nVessel, has caused the Lender to believe that the prospect of payment or performance of this Note\nis impaired, and, in good faith, believes itself insecure. See Note, p. 2.\n\nThe Lender reaffirms the acceleration of the Loan and demand for the balance of the Loan\nin full. Furthermore, effective January 9, 2026, the Lender hereby exercises its right to\n\nakerman.com\n\n84969742;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 64-1 Entered on FLSD Docket 05/04/2026 Page 26 of 34\n\nJanuary 9, 2026\nPage 2\n\ninstitute the default rate of interest of 18.00% per annum, in accordance with the terms\nunder the Note.\n\nThe balance due on the Loan as of January 8, 2026 is $143,054.75 in principal and\n$1,287.43 in interest, for a total of $144,342.18, plus attorneys\u2019 fees and costs which have accrued\nand continue to accrue (the \u201cBalance Due\u2019).

The Court has carefully\n\n considered the Motion [DE 49], Chales Jacob Stratmann\u2019s \u201cVerified Claim of Interest\u201d [DE 41]\n\n filed herein on March 11, 2026, and Chales Jacob Stratmann\u2019s Answer and Affirmative Defenses\n\n and Counterclaim [DE 43], filed on April 1, 2026., is otherwise fully advised in the premises.\n\n As this Court has already observed, \u201cStratmann does not hold a substantial and legally\n\n protectable interest in the Vessel.\u201d [DE 30]. Therefore, Stratmann lacks standing to file claim of\n\n interest pursuant to Supplemental Rule C, because only \u201ca person who asserts a right of\n\n possession or any ownership interest in the property that is the subject of the action\u201d has standing\n\n to file a claim of interest. Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6)(a)(i); Dresdner Bank AG v. M/V\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 53 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/16/2026 Page 2 of 3\n\n\n\n\n Olympia Voyager, 463 F.3d 1233, 1237 (11th Cir. 2006) (\u201cCompliance with Supplemental Rule\n\n C(6) is obligatory in order for a party to have standing to challenge an in rem claim\u201d) (citing\n\n United States v. Commodity Account., 219 F.3d 595, 597 (7th Cir. 2000)). The Court will\n\n therefore strike Stratmann\u2019s claim for lack of standing and as improper.\n\n Likewise, Stratmann\u2019s answer is due to be stricken. Where an answer is filed without a\n\n preceding valid claim, striking the answer is likewise appropriate for lack of standing. See e.g.,\n\n U.S. v. One (1) 1979 Mercedes 450SE Vehicle ID No. 116032-12-081839 License No. MKS 706,\n\n 651 F. Supp. 351, 353 (S.D. Fla. 1987) (\u201cThe court may grant a motion to strike an answer which\n\n is not preceded by a properly filed claim\u201d) (citing United States v. Beechcraft Queen Airplane,\n\n 789 F.2d 627, 629\u201330 (8th Cir. 1986)). Moreover, and in the alternative, Stratmann, as a member\n\n of Starboard Yacht Group, LLC, may not assert counterclaims on behalf of the entity without\n\n counsel. See Palazzo v. Gulf Oil Corp., 764 F.2d 1381, 1385 (11th Cir. 1985).\n\n Without a valid and timely filed claim or answer, the Court agrees that default is\n\n appropriate. In an in rem action, any claimant of property subject to an action must file a claim\n\n within fourteen days of arrest. See Supplemental Admiralty Rule 6(a)(i); Local Admiralty Rule\n\n C(6)(a). Thereafter, the claimant shall serve an answer within twenty-one (21) days. See\n\n Supplemental Admiralty Rule 6(a)(iv); Local Admiralty Rule C(6)(b). Here, the arrest warrant\n\n was executed on March 4, 2026 [DE 33]. Thus, the time for filing a claim and answer has\n\n elapsed, and no parties other than Stratmann have filed a claim or answer. Plaintiff has complied\n\n with the notice requirements in Local Admiralty Rule C(8) for a party seeking the entry of\n\n default judgment in rem.

INTRODUCTION\n\n The Claim and Answer filed by Stratmann attempts to assert claims and defenses of\n\n Defendant Starboard Yacht Group LLC (\u201cSYG\u201d or \u201cBorrower\u201d) in defiance of the Court\u2019s orders\n\n striking non-lawyer Stratmann\u2019s previous filings for SYG [DE 15] and denying Stratmann\u2019s\n\n\n\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 2 of 13\n\n\n\n\n request for intervention [DE 30]. Stratmann\u2019s Claim is legally insufficient under Supplemental\n\n Admiralty Rule C(6) as it fails to allege a valid interest in the Vessel. As this Court has previously\n\n held, \u201cStratmann does not hold a substantial and legally protectable interest in the Vessel.\u201d [DE 30\n\n at 2.] Accordingly, the Claim must be dismissed and the Answer\u2014predicated upon the Claim\u2014\n\n stricken for lack of standing. Stratmann further raises arguments as to purported non-existent\n\n conflicts of undersigned counsel, which arguments have already been heard and rejected by Judge\n\n Singhal in another case before this Court, which is further reason to strike Stratmann\u2019s pleadings.\n\n II. SUMMARY OF STRATMANN\u2019S CLAIM\n\n Stratmann\u2019s Claim asserts three grounds for a claim of interest in the Vessel [DE 41 at \u00b6\u00b6\n\n 1-4], most of which have previously been rejected by this Court, and none of which can confer\n\n standing under Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6).\n\n First, Stratmann contends his status as a guarantor of the loan secured by the Vessel, and\n\n his corresponding personal liability under such guaranty, gives rise to an interest in the Vessel. [DE\n\n 41 at \u00b6\u00b6 1-2]. This is identical to the arguments raised by Stratmann in his motion to intervene and\n\n supplements thereto [DE 17, 27, 29], which were squarely addressed and rejected by the Court in\n\n its order denying Stratmann\u2019s intervention. [DE 30.]\n\n Second, Stratmann asserts his role as managing member of SYG gives rise to a cognizable\n\n interest in the Vessel [DE 41 at \u00b6 3], another argument already rejected by this Court [DE 30]. This\n\n Court has acknowledged Stratmann\u2019s status as \u201cthe sole corporate representative of Defendant\n\n SYG\u201d and held that \u201cStratmann does not hold a substantial and legally protectable interest in the\n\n Vessel.\u201d [DE 30 at 2.] This Court previously ordered SYG to retain counsel in order to protect its\n\n ownership interest in the Vessel [DE 15], and held that \u201cStratmann may not simultaneously benefit\n\n\n\n\n 2\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 3 of 13\n\n\n\n\n from the protections afforded by LLC status and then shirk the responsibilities that naturally\n\n accompany that status.\u201d [DE 30 at 3.]\n\n Next, Stratmann alleges his \u201cconstructive possession and control\u201d of the Vessel [DE 41 \u00b6\n\n 4] is the basis for his interest, but it is undisputed that SYG is the sole owner of the Vessel and\n\n Stratmann\u2019s \u201cpossession\u201d of the Vessel was due to his role in SYG, not due to any personal right\n\n or entitlement to possession. Again, this Court\u2019s prior orders prohibit Stratmann from acting on\n\n SYG\u2019s behalf. [DE 15, 30.]\n\n Lastly, Stratmann also purports to assert interests allegedly held by third parties, without\n\n any authority to do so. [DE 41 \u00b6 5.] Nor would it be common sense for Stratmann to have authority\n\n to assert interests by non-party banks who are currently suing him in other cases. See infra at note\n\n 2.\n\n As explained below, none of Stratmann\u2019s asserted bases for an interest establishes a valid\n\n ownership, possessory, or lien interest in the Vessel, and therefore the Claim must be dismissed,\n\n and the Answer, predicated upon the Claim, stricken.\n\n III. ARGUMENT AND INCORPORATED MEMORANDUM OF LAW\n\n A. Stratmann\u2019s Claim Should Be Dismissed Since He Has No Valid Interest in the Vessel\n\n Under federal admiralty law, a party that lacks a valid ownership or possessory interest in\n\n a vessel cannot properly file a verified statement of interest under Supplemental Admiralty Rule\n\n C(6), and, consequently, has no standing to file an answer, assert affirmative defenses, or maintain\n\n a counterclaim.\n\n Only \u201ca person who asserts a right of possession or any ownership interest in the property\n\n that is the subject of the action\u201d has standing to file a claim of interest. Supplemental Admiralty\n\n Rule C(6)(a)(i); see Dresdner Bank AG v. M/V Olympia Voyager, 463 F.3d 1233, 1237 (11th Cir.\n\n\n\n 3\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 4 of 13\n\n\n\n\n 2006). \u201cCompliance with Supplemental Rule C(6) is obligatory in order for a party to have\n\n standing to challenge an in rem claim\u201d Id. (citing United States v. Commodity Account No. 549\n\n 54930 at Saul Stone & Co., 219 F.3d 595, 597 (7th Cir. 2000)). \u201c[T]he Local Admiralty Rules\n\n \u2018recognize[] two distinct groups of in rem claimants[:]\u2019 those with ownership interests that would\n\n entitle them to possession of the vessel and those with non-possessory lien interests.\u201d Robbie\u2019s of\n\n Key West v. M/V Komedy III, No. 4:19-cv-10193-KMM, 2020 WL 13389895, at *7 (S.D. Fla. Oct.\n\n 14, 2020) (citing S.D. Fla. Admiralty Rule C(8)\u2013(9) Advisory Note) (alterations in original). A\n\n verified statement of interest \u201cmust describe the interest in the property that supports the person\u2019s\n\n demand for its restitution or right to defend the action.\u201d Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6)(a)(ii).\n\n Stratmann claims neither an ownership or lien interest in the subject Vessel, as required by\n\n Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6). As this Court has already held, serving as a guarantor on a\n\n loan does not confer standing upon the guarantor to contest an action to foreclose on the vessel.\n\n [DE 30]; Reedsburg Bank v. Apollo, 508 F.2d 995, 998 (7th Cir. 1975). In support of his Claim,\n\n Stratmann cites Talisman Cap. Alternative Invs. Fund, Ltd. v. Moutet, No. 10-24577-CIV, 2011\n\n WL 13223534, *3 (S.D. Fla. May 19, 2011) for the proposition that \u201cguarantor has independent\n\n standing in [an] admiralty proceeding.\u201d [DE 41 \u00b6 2.] However, Talisman does not concern an\n\n admiralty proceeding, or a guarantor\u2019s standing. Instead, Talisman held neither a borrower, nor a\n\n party with a prior interest in the note, were necessary parties to a breach-of-guaranty lawsuit. See\n\n id.at *3\u20134.\n\n Aside from Stratmann\u2019s guaranty-based interests, the remainder of Stratmann\u2019s alleged\n\n personal interests arise only from Stratmann\u2019s position as managing member of SYG. [DE 41, \u00b6\u00b6\n\n 3-4.] As Stratmann admits, the sole owner of the Vessel is SYG, which has not yet appeared in\n\n this matter with counsel, as ordered. [DE 15.] As this Court stated, \u201cStratmann may not\n\n\n\n 4\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 5 of 13\n\n\n\n\n simultaneously benefit from the protections afforded by LLC status and then shirk the\n\n responsibilities that naturally accompany that status.\u201d [DE 30 at 3.] Stratmann\u2019s \u201cconstructive\n\n possession and control\u201d of the Vessel [DE 41, \u00b6 4] is implicitly explained by his position with\n\n SYG, the owner of the Vessel, and is not otherwise based in any legal grounds to support a demand\n\n for restitution, or right to defend the action. See Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6)(a)(ii); see also\n\n Marine Servicenter v. My Way, 574 F.Supp. 1025, 1026 (W.D. Wash. 1983) (a claimant under the\n\n supplemental admiralty rules \u201crefers only to one with a proprietary interest in a vessel.\u201d) 1\n\n Stratmann\u2019s Claim also contains a section titled \u201cAdditional Interests in Vessel,\u201d which\n\n alleges interests of Scott Jarvie, Locality Bank, and TD Bank N.A. (and Plaintiff). [DE 41, \u00b6 5]\n\n Without a valid statement of authority, Stratmann does not have standing to assert claims on behalf\n\n of these third parties. See Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6)(a)(iii) (\u201can agent, bailee, or attorney\n\n must state the authority to file a statement of right or interest on behalf of another\u201d). Stratmann is\n\n not an attorney, and has not stated his right to represent any of those three parties as agent, at least\n\n two of which are presently suing him.2\n\n Since Stratmann holds no ownership interest in the Vessel, has no possessory right to the\n\n Vessel, holds no lien against the Vessel, and has no authorization to file a claim on behalf of third\n\n parties, the Claim fails to comply with the requirements set forth in Supplemental Admiralty Rule\n\n C(6) and should be dismissed. See Dresdner Bank AG, 463 F.3d at 1237 (holding that the District\n\n Court properly dismissed purported lien claims that could not possibly give rise to a maritime lien\n\n that would have priority over the preferred ship mortgage).\n\n\n\n\n 1\n Black\u2019s Law Dictionary defines \u201cproprietary interest\u201d as \u201cthe interest held by a property owner together with all\n appurtenant rights.\u201d Proprietary Interest, BLACK'S LAW DICTIONARY (12th ed. 2024).\n 2\n See Locality Bank v. Starboard Yacht Group LLC et al., Case No. 0:2026cv60068 (S.D. Fla.); TD Bank, N.A. Plaintiff\n vs. Starboard Yacht Group LLC, et al, Case No. CACE25018262 (Broward County Circuit Court).\n\n 5\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 6 of 13\n\n\n\n\n B. Stratmann\u2019s Answer Should be Stricken\n\n 1. Stratmann Lacks Standing to File the Answer Since He Has No Valid Interest\n\n In addition to dismissing the Claim, this Court should strike the Answer that was\n\n subsequently filed by Stratmann. [DE 43.] Where an answer is filed without a preceding valid\n\n claim, federal courts may strike the answer for lack of standing. Gregory Boat Co. v. Vessel Big\n\n Beaut, 938 F.Supp. 414, 416 (E.D. Mich. 1996) (striking answer where defendant filed to comply\n\n with Supplemental Rule C(6) and therefore lacked standing); RR Caribbean, Inc. v. Dredge\n\n \u201cJumby Bay\u201d, 147 F. Supp. 2d 378, 381-82 (V.I. 2001) (striking answer to in rem claim since\n\n party lacked standing based on failure to file verified claim under Supplemental Rule C(6)); U.S.\n\n v. One (1) 1979 Mercedes 450SE Vehicle ID No. 116032-12-081839 License No. MKS 706, 651\n\n F. Supp. 351, 353 (S.D. Fla. 1987) (\u201cThe court may grant a motion to strike an answer which is\n\n not preceded by a properly filed claim\u201d). Accordingly, this Court should strike the Answer in its\n\n entirety since the Claim itself is defective and noncompliant, and therefore, the Answer was not\n\n preceded by any valid claim of interest.\n\n 2. Stratmann Lacks Authority to Assert his Counterclaims\n\n Although the counterclaims in the Answer should be stricken given the lack of any valid\n\n claim, as argued supra, Stratmann\u2019s counterclaims must also be stricken since he lacks authority\n\n to bring them. A member or manager of a limited liability company may not assert claims\n\n belonging to the entity in his individual capacity. Dinuro Invs., LLC v. Camacho, 141 So. 3d 731,\n\n 743 (Fla. 3d DCA 2014) (members lack standing to assert claims individually based on injury to\n\n an LLC). Claims arising from injuries to an LLC\u2014including alleged misconduct affecting\n\n company assets\u2014belong exclusively to the entity and must be pursued by the entity itself, through\n\n\n\n\n 6\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 7 of 13\n\n\n\n\n counsel. See id.; Palazzo v. Gulf Oil Corp., 764 F.2d 1381, 1385 (11th Cir. 1985) (non-lawyer\n\n officers of corporate entities may not assert corporate claims without counsel).\n\n The counterclaims in Stratmann\u2019s Answer assert injuries that, by Stratmann\u2019s own\n\n allegations, flow from conduct allegedly affecting SYG\u2019s rights, financial position, or litigation\n\n posture. Stratmann cannot circumvent this limitation by styling entity claims as personal\n\n \u201ccounterclaims,\u201d particularly where this Court has already ordered SYG to appear through counsel\n\n and prohibited Stratmann from acting on SYG\u2019s behalf. [DE 15, DE 30.] Because the\n\n counterclaims assert claims (albeit non-meritorious) that belong to SYG\u2014and not Stratmann\n\n individually\u2014they must be stricken in their entirety.\n\n 3. Stratmann\u2019s Counterclaims are Improper in This In Rem Foreclosure Action\n\n Independently, Stratmann\u2019s counterclaims are procedurally improper since they seek to\n\n inject unrelated grievances into a narrow in rem foreclosure proceeding. An action to foreclose a\n\n preferred ship mortgage is limited in scope and directed solely towards the adjudication of interests\n\n in the res. See Reedsburg Bank, 508 F.2d at 998 (\u201cThe sole function of the in rem proceeding is\n\n to foreclose the mortgage, effect the sale of the vessel, and establish the priority of all claims\n\n directly against the vessel\u201d). Stratmann\u2019s counterclaims\u2014seeking monetary and declaratory relief\n\n regarding alleged attorney conflicts and other collateral matters\u2014do not relate to the existence,\n\n priority, or enforcement of Plaintiff\u2019s preferred ship mortgage. Allowing such counterclaims\n\n would undermine the efficiency of maritime foreclosure remedies.\n\n 4. Stratmann\u2019s Counterclaims Are Based on Arguments Previously Rejected\n\n Stratmann\u2019s third counterclaim alleges that Plaintiff\u2019s counsel\u2019s representation of Seacoast\n\n in this case violates the Florida Rules of Professional Conduct [DE 43, \u00b6\u00b6 47-49), despite already\n\n having received an adverse ruling from another judge of this Court on this specific issue.\n\n\n\n 7\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 8 of 13\n\n\n\n\n Specifically, Stratmann asserts Akerman LLP is conflicted based on \u201crepresenting Ivankovich\n\n Family LLC in related bankruptcy proceedings and having previously represented SHM LLC\n\n adverse to SYG.\u201d [DE 43, \u00b6 48.] Given that there is no conflict arising from either representation,\n\n this counterclaim should be dismissed and stricken. 3\n\n As to the first purported conflict, Stratmann objects to Akerman\u2019s bankruptcy\n\n representation on the basis that Akerman also sued \u201con behalf of Seacoast against Ivankovich\n\n entities in Case No. 1:25-cv-25958 (S.D. Fla.).\u201d [DE 43, \u00b6 31.] However, this is simply false as\n\n Akerman never represented Seacoast in such case.4 Moreover, there is no overlap in parties\n\n between the bankruptcy proceeding and the instant action, and Stratmann otherwise fails to explain\n\n how a completely unrelated representation could present a conflict of interest in this action.\n\n As to the second purported conflict, based on Akerman\u2019s representation of Safe Harbor\n\n Marina LLC in Case No. 23-61696-CIV-Singhal, Judge Singhal has already ruled against\n\n Stratmann on the precise issue. On February 17, 2026, Stratmann filed a Motion in Limine to\n\n Disqualify Akerman LLP and Stay Related Foreclosure Proceedings Due to Irreconcilable\n\n Conflict of Interest, referring to the same alleged conflict of Akerman LLP that Stratmann raised\n\n in his counterclaim. See DE 293, Starboard Yacht Group LLC v. Contessa Marine Research LLC,\n\n No. 23-61696-CIV-Singhal (S.D. Fla. Feb. 17, 2026). On March 13, 2026, Judge Singhal denied\n\n such motion, stating, in plain language: \u201cStratmann insists Akerman LLP is involved in a conflict\n\n of interest because it represents two different clients who are litigating against Stratmann in\n\n different cases. Under no definition is this a conflict of interest \u2026 [t]his is not the law and it is not\n\n\n\n 3\n Moreover, the Florida Bar already discharged the complaint Stratmann filed, which (like the counterclaims) was\n filled with objectively false statements, such as the repeated assertion by Stratmann that the undersigned represents\n Seacoast against Contessa Marine Research in Case No. 1:25-cv-25958 (S.D. Fla.). [DE 43, \u00b6 31.]\n 4\n The law firms of McIntosh Schwartz, P.L. and Fowler White Burnett, P.A. represent Seacoast National Bank in such\n action.\n\n 8\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 9 of 13\n\n\n\n\n a common sense application of the law. There is no per se conflict between two or more people\n\n who both have claims against the same entity.\u201d Id. at DE 313. Just twenty days after receiving\n\n Judge Singhal\u2019s adverse ruling on his motion to disqualify, Stratmann filed his Answer which\n\n asserts the same conflict allegations already rejected. This is a hallmark of a vexatious litigant. 5\n\n A court may strike \u201cany redundant, immaterial, impertinent, or scandalous matter from a\n\n pleading.\u201d Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(f). Additionally, \u201cthe power to strike a pleading[] is inherent in a\n\n trial court\u2019s authority to enforce its orders and ensure prompt disposition of legal actions.\u201d State\n\n Exchange Bank v. Hartline, 693 F.2d 1350, 1352 (11th Cir. 1982). Because Stratmann\u2019s\n\n allegations of a conflict of interest are based on either false and defamatory allegations, or already-\n\n rejected issues, and are clearly being used a pressure tactic to discredit Seacoast\u2019s counsel, the\n\n counterclaim and its allegations of conflict should be stricken.\n\n C. The Court Should Enter a Default Against the Vessel\n\n Where a claimant\u2019s answer has been stricken, and no other parties have filed a claim or\n\n answer for the Vessel, a default should be entered. See Gregory Boat Co. v. Vessel Big Beaut, 938\n\n F.Supp. 414, 416 (E.D. Mich. 1996) (striking answer and entering default); RR Caribbean, Inc. v.\n\n Dredge \u201cJumby Bay\u201d, 147 F. Supp. 2d 378, 383 (V.I. 2001) (same).\n\n Supplemental Admiralty Rule 6(a)(i) and Local Admiralty Rule C(6)(a) require that within\n\n fourteen days of arrest, any claimant of property subject to an action in rem shall file a claim.\n\n Supplemental Admiralty Rule 6(a)(iv) and Local Admiralty Rule C(6)(b) require that any claimant\n\n shall thereafter serve an answer within twenty-one (21) days after filing the claim.\n\n\n\n 5\n Florida Vexatious Litigant Law defines a pro se person to be a vexatious litigant where they repeatedly file\n \u201cpleadings, requests for relief, and other documents that have been the subject of previous rulings by the court in the\n same action\u201d or \u201cunmeritorious pleadings, requests for relief, or other documents; conducts unnecessary discovery; or\n engages in other tactics that are frivolous or solely intended to cause unnecessary delay in any action\u201d. Fla. Stat. \u00a7\n 68.093(c)(4). Plaintiff reserves the right to request sanctions from Stratmann for its costs in responding to these\n vexatious tactics.\n\n 9\n 86075525;2\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 49 Entered on FLSD Docket 04/15/2026 Page 10 of 13\n\n\n\n\n Here, no parties other than Stratmann have filed a claim. The arrest warrant was executed\n\n on March 4, 2026 [DE 33], and therefore the time for filing a claim elapsed after March 16, 2026,\n\n and no claim or answer (other than Stratmann\u2019s) has been filed or served.\n\n Local Admiralty Rule C(8) provides that a plaintiff seeking the entry of default must\n\n demonstrate: (a) service of notice of the action and arrest on the master or person having custody\n\n of the vessel, (b) mailing notice by certified mail to the owner of the vessel, and all other persons\n\n claiming a possessory interest in the vessel, and (c) publication of the notice of the arrest as\n\n required by Local Admiralty Rule C(4).\n\n Pursuant to Local Admiralty Rule C(8)(a), due notice of the action and arrest has been\n\n given by service upon \u201cthe master or other person having custody of the property.\u201d Due notice of\n\n the action and arrest was served on the person in custody of the Vessel at National Liquidators\n\n pursuant to the Process Receipt and Return filed by the U.S. Marshal [DE 33].\n\n Pursuant to Local Admiralty Rule C(8)(b), due notice of the action and arrest must be been\n\n given by \u201c[d]elivery, or by certified mail, return receipt requested (or international equivalent), to\n\n every other person, including any known owner, who has not appeared or intervened in the action,\n\n and who is known to have, or claims to have, a possessory interest in the property.\u201d Due notice of\n\n the action and arrest was sent by regular and certified mail to SYG, the owner of, and only known\n\n person to have a possessory interest in, the Vessel. [DE 34, 45]. 6 Notice was also sent to: (i)\n\n Locality Bank7, as an entity with a junior mortgage on the Vessel pursuant to the abstract attached\n\n as Exhibit A hereto, (ii) Fowler White Burnett P.A.

Although the certified mail receipt was returned unsigned from SYG, due notice\n\n of the action and arrest was also served by \u201cdelivery\u201d because SYG was personally served due\n\n notice of the action and arrest, [DE 44], and clearly Stratmann, the sole managing member of SYG,\n\n has received actual notice given his appearance in this action. In sum, Defendant SYG, the owner\n\n of the Vessel, has been given due notice of the action and arrest in compliance with Local\n\n Admiralty Rule C(8)(b).\n\n Pursuant to Local Admiralty Rule C(8)(c), publication as required by Supplemental Rule\n\n C(4) has been made. [DE 42.] The Notice of Action in Rem and Arrest Of Vessel was published\n\n in the Sun Sentinel on March 18, 2026. Id.\n\n Here, Plaintiff has satisfied all requirements for entry of default. Plaintiff arrested the\n\n Vessel through the U.S. Marshal and served the person in custody of the Vessel, National\n\n Liquidators, at the time of the arrest as evidenced by the U.S. Marshal\u2019s Process Receipt and\n\n Return. [DE 33.] Plaintiff provided written notice of the action and arrest by certified mail, return\n\n receipt requested to the owner of the Vessel, SYG, by certified mail and personal delivery. [DE\n\n 44, 45.] Plaintiff also published notice of the action and arrest in the Sun Sentinel. See Ex. D.\n\n There have been no claims made other than Stratmann\u2019s Claim, which should be stricken,\n\n and the owner, SYG, has failed to respond. Therefore, the Court may \u201center default in accordance\n\n with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 55.\u201d See Local Admiralty Rule C(8).10\n\n\n\n\n 8\n Although the certified mail to Fowler White Burnett P.A. does not show as delivered, they also received a copy by\n US Mail [DE 34], and a courtesy copy was sent via email.

IDENTIFICATION OF VESSEL\n\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 41 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2026 Page 2 of 11\n\nVessel Name: M/V SLOW UR ROLL II\n\nType: 2008 Everglades 350LX Express\nOfficial No.: 1220768 (USCG documented)\nHIN: RJDE00051708\n\nPort: Fort Lauderdale, Florida\n\nCurrent Location: Broward County, Florida\nCustodian: |G Robert Toney & Associates Inc. d/b/a\nNational Liquidators (per DE 23, Feb. 25, 2026)\n\nIl. NATURE OF CLAIMANT\u2019S INTEREST\n\n1. Claimant Charles Jacob Stratmann is the personal guarantor under the Commercial\nGuaranty executed in connection with the Seacoast National Bank Promissory Note dated July 17,\n2020, in the original principal amount of $176,503.10, at 4.25% interest, secured by a First\nPreferred Ship Mortgage on the Vessel (Loan No. 4000846326-1).\n\n2. As guarantor, Claimant is directly and personally liable for the obligations secured by\nthe Vessel. This direct personal liability gives rise to a cognizable interest in the Vessel sufficient\nto support a claim under Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6). See Talisman Cap. Alternative Invs.\nFund, Ltd. v. Mouttet, No. 10-24577-CIV, 2011 WL 13223534, at *3 (S.D. Fla. May 19, 2011)\n(guarantor has independent standing in admiralty proceeding).\n\n3. Claimant is also the managing member of Defendant Starboard Yacht Group LLC\n(\u201cSYG\u201d), the borrower and mortgagor under the Preferred Ship Mortgage.\n\n4, Claimant has been in constructive possession and control of the Vessel at all relevant\n\ntimes, exercising dominion over its maintenance, insurance, storage, and operation.\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 41 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2026 Page 3 of 11\n\nIi. ADDITIONAL INTERESTS IN VESSEL\n\n5. Claimant is aware that the following additional interests exist in the Vessel, creating a\n\nmulti-creditor priority dispute that this Court should adjudicate before any foreclosure sale:\n\n(a) Seacoast National Bank: First Preferred Ship Mortgage (July 17, 2020) \u2014 the claim\nin this action;\n\n(b) Scott Jarvie: 51% equity interest pursuant to Bill of Sale and Equity Agreement\nexecuted June 10, 2025, four months before Seacoast\u2019s first missed payment;\n\n(c) Locality Bank: Junior lien as part of SBA loan collateral package ($990,000),\nsecured by the same Vessel (USCG Official No. 1220768). Locality Bank filed a separate federal\naction against SYG, Locality Bank v. Starboard Yacht Group LLC, Case No. 0:26-cv-60068-AHS\n(S.D. Fla., Judge Singhal), on January 12, 2026 \u2014 one month before Plaintiff filed this action.\nLocality Bank\u2019s complaint names the identical Vessel as collateral and also names a 28-foot\nPursuit (Hull ID SSUE82861405) and Charles J. Stratmann individually. Notably, Locality Bank\u2019s\ndocket includes a sealed motion (DE 1006, Jan. 12, 2026) and sealed order (DE 1007, Jan. 13,\n2026), the contents of which are presently unknown to Claimant but which may involve additional\ncustodial or replevin relief against the same Vessel now under arrest in this action;\n\n(d) TD Bank NA: UCC-1 Filing No. 202500077851 (December 30, 2025) \u2014 scope to\n\nbe determined. TD Bank has also obtained a default judgment of $268,285.28 against SYG and\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 41 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2026 Page 4 of 11\n\nStratmann in 7D Bank NA v. SYG LLC/Stratmann, Case No. CACE-25-018262 (Broward County\n\nCircuit Court), entered February 18, 2026.\n\n5a. Claimant brings to the Court\u2019s attention that Plaintiff's counsel, Akerman LLP\n(attorneys Amanda Klopp, FBN 124156, and Jenna M. Yoss, FBN 1049858), simultaneously\nrepresents SHM LMC, LLC d/b/a Lauderdale Marine Center through different Akerman attorneys\n(James E. Rogers and Sean M. Cichowski) in Contessa Marine Research LLC v. Starboard Yacht\nGroup LLC, Case No. 0:23-cv-61696-AHS (S.D. Fla., Judge Singhal), where Akerman secured a\n$6,524,783.18 default judgment against SYG on February 20, 2026 (CMR DEs 299-300). A\nFlorida Bar complaint has been filed against Amanda Klopp (FBN 124156) based on this\nconcurrent conflict of interest under Florida Rules of Professional Conduct 4-1.7 and 4-1.10(a). A\n\nseparate Motion to Disqualify Akerman LLP has been prepared for filing in this action.\n\n6. Claimant makes these disclosures in the interest of full transparency and to assist the\nCourt in identifying all parties with claims against or interests in the Vessel. The convergence of\nfour competing creditor claims on a single vessel, facilitated in part by conflicted counsel, warrants\n\ncareful judicial supervision of any foreclosure or sale proceedings.\n\nIV. DEFENSES AND COUNTERCLAIMS RESERVED\n\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 41 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2026 Page 5 of 11\n\n7. Claimant reserves all defenses, claims, and counterclaims available under law and\n\nequity, including but not limited to:\n\n(a) Improper acceleration of the loan;\n\n(b) Failure to credit payments properly (BofA Bill Pay confirmations exist for multiple\npayments that Plaintiff claims were \u201cnot received\u201d);\n\n(c) Unclean hands based on Plaintiffs counsel\u2019s concurrent conflict of interest (see J5a\nabove);\n\n(d) Lender liability for deploying National Liquidators for extrajudicial seizure without\ncourt authorization on February 12, 2026 \u2014 the same day the Complaint was filed and before any\njudicial warrant was sought (see BSO Axon Ref. 02-2601-000152);\n\n(e) Violation of the Preferred Ship Mortgage Act\u2019s exclusive federal remedy (46 U.S.C.\n\u00a731325);\n\n(f) Good faith and fair dealing claims arising from the coordinated litigation campaign;\n\n(g) Enterprise coordination defense: The simultaneous multi-front creditor actions\nagainst SYG\u2019s assets \u2014 including this foreclosure, the Locality Bank action (0:26-cv-60068-\nAHS), the CMR default judgment (0:23-cv-61696-AHS), and the TD Bank default judgment\n(CACE-25-018262) \u2014 form part of a broader pattern of coordinated asset-stripping targeting\nSYG, which Claimant contends constitutes predicate acts under 18 U.S.C. \u00a71962. The Vessel is\namong the last operational assets of SYG, and the timing and coordination of these competing\nclaims is relevant to Claimant\u2019s affirmative defenses and counterclaims;\n\n(h) Pattern evidence from related proceedings: On February 23, 2026, Steven\n\nIvankovich \u2014 the principal of the entity at the center of the CMR Action \u2014 testified under oath\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 41 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2026 Page 6 of 11\n\nbefore Judge Singhal at the federal bench trial in Case No. 0:23-cv-61696-AHS. Ivankovich\u2019s\nsworn testimony includes admissions regarding the theft and disposition of commercial assets,\nspecifically Seakeeper marine stabilization units valued in excess of $268,000, which Ivankovich\nacknowledged were \u201cessentially stolen\u201d (Tr. 85:25-86:7). Separately, a cooperating whistleblower\n(former General Manager of the Ivankovich-controlled entity) has provided sworn statements to\nlaw enforcement and the Court-appointed Receiver (Cook County, IL) documenting a scheme\ninvolving fabricated wire transfers, false police reports, and enterprise coordination across multiple\nstates. These proceedings are directly relevant to Claimant\u2019s defenses regarding the coordinated\nlitigation campaign against SYG.\n\n(i) Adequate alternative recovery rendering foreclosure premature: On January 30,\n2026, Claimant\u2019s counsel, Gavin T. Elliot, Esq. of The Elliot Legal Group, P.A., served a formal\ndemand letter pursuant to Florida\u2019s Civil Remedies for Criminal Practices Act, Fla. Stat. \u00a7772.11,\nupon Tom Ackel and BlueWater Reel Estate LLC, demanding payment of $3,455,370.00 (treble\ndamages) for the theft of $1,151,790.00 in SYG property. The demand was served via U.S.\nCertified Mail, Return Receipt Requested, and via email to counsel Jordan M. Brill, Esq. The\nthirty-day statutory period has expired without compliance. The underlying theft directly caused\nSYG\u2019s cash flow crisis: Ackel signed a subordination agreement on May 30, 2024 that enabled the\n$990,000 SBA loan from Locality Bank, then breached it by seizing $1,166,000 in SYG collateral\non November 10-13, 2025 \u2014 an act for which the Broward County Court entered a felony finding\non December 9, 2025. The $3,455,370 treble recovery from Ackel/Blue Water (against personal\nassets estimated at $5-$8 million) more than covers both the Seacoast Preferred Ship Mortgage\n(~$176,503) and the Locality Bank SBA loan (~$990,000), with a surplus exceeding $2,288,000.\n\nForeclosure and sale of the Vessel at this time would destroy SYG\u2019s last operational asset for a\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 41 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2026 Page 7 of 11\n\nfraction of its value, while the party whose criminal conduct caused the debt crisis remains\njudgment-proof. Claimant submits that this Court should consider the availability of this\nalternative recovery in determining the pace and scope of foreclosure proceedings, and that equity\ncounsels against an irreversible forced sale while an enforceable treble-damage claim exists\n\nagainst the tortfeasor.\n\nV. DEMAND FOR ANSWER PERIOD\n\n8. Pursuant to Supplemental Admiralty Rule C(6) and Local Admiralty Rule C(6)(a)(i),\nClaimant respectfully requests that, following the filing of this Verified Claim, Claimant be\n\nafforded the full 21-day period provided by the Rules in which to file an Answer to the Complaint.\n\nVI. REQUEST FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE\n\n9. Claimant respectfully requests that this Court take judicial notice, pursuant to Federal\nRule of Evidence 201, of the following related proceedings in this District involving the same\n\nVessel, the same defendant (SYG), and/or the same counsel (Akerman LLP):\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 41 Entered on FLSD Docket 03/12/2026 Page 8 of 11\n\n(a) Contessa Marine Research LLC vy.

This Court has jurisdiction over this proceeding under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7 1333, 46 U.S.C.\n\n \u00a7\u00a7 31301-31343, under the General Maritime Law of the United States.\n\n 4.

Defendant STARBOARD YACHT GROUP LLC (\u201cBorrower\u201d), is the owner of the\n\n Vessel, and is a Florida limited liability company with its principal place of business in Broward\n\n County, Florida.\n\n 6.

Plaintiff is a banking institution authorized to do business in the state of Florida.\n\n The Loan and the Loan Documents\n\n 8. On or about July 17, 2020, Plaintiff made a loan (\u201cLoan\u201d) to the Borrower. To\n\n evidence the Loan, Borrower executed and delivered a Promissory Note (\u201cNote\u201d) dated July 17,\n\n 2020, and became indebted, to Plaintiff in the original principal amount of $176,503.10. The Note\n\n\n\n\n 2\n 85134797;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/02/2026 Page 3 of 9\n\n\n\n\n called for 240 payments of principal and interest due monthly, beginning August 17, 2020. A true\n\n and correct copy of the Note is attached as Exhibit A.\n\n 9. In order to secure payment of the Note and interest thereon, on July 17, 2020,\n\n Borrower executed a First Preferred Ship Mortgage (\u201cMortgage\u201d), encumbering the Vessel. A\n\n true and correct copy of the Mortgage is attached as Exhibit B.\n\n 10. By the terms of the Mortgage, Borrower mortgaged the Vessel along with her\n\n equipment, furniture, accessories, electronic equipment, personal property, apparel, belongings,\n\n fittings, sails, rigging, engines, etc. to Plaintiff to secure payment of all sums due under the Note\n\n and Mortgage to Plaintiff.\n\n 11. The Vessel is a documented vessel of the United States.\n\n 12. The Mortgage was filed in substantial compliance with 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31321(b) with\n\n United States Coast Guard Vessel Documentation Center.\n\n 13. The Note, Mortgage, and all other documents executed and delivered from time to\n\n time in connection with, or otherwise evidencing, securing, or related to, the Loan are collectively\n\n referred to as the \u201cLoan Documents.\u201d\n\n The Defaults and Amounts Due\n\n 14. Borrower is in default under the terms of the Note, Mortgage, and all other Loan\n\n Documents, by failing to make payments as and when due, including those payments due on\n\n November 17, 2025 and December 17, 2025.\n\n 15. Additionally, Borrower is in default under the terms of the Mortgage and all other\n\n Loan Documents by creating, incurring, or permitting a lien to be placed or imposed on the Vessel,\n\n and by mortgaging the Vessel without permission of the Plaintiff. See Mortgage, Art. I \u00b6\u00b6 5, 10.\n\n On June 24, 2024, Locality Bank recorded a Preferred Ships Mortgage on the Vessel with United\n\n\n\n 3\n 85134797;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/02/2026 Page 4 of 9\n\n\n\n\n States Coast Guard Vessel Documentation Center. A true and correct copy of the abstract provided\n\n by the United States Coast Guard Vessel Documentation Center is attached as Exhibit C.\n\n 16. As a result of the defaults, the Note and Mortgage provide that Plaintiff may\n\n demand full payment of the unpaid principal balance, accrued interest, fees, costs and charges,\n\n repossess the Vessel, and foreclose on the Vessel.\n\n 17. On December 18, 2025, Plaintiff sent a letter (\u201cDemand Letter\u201d) to Borrower,\n\n accelerating the indebtedness and demanding payment in full of all sums due under the Note and\n\n other Loan Documents, but payment has not been made. A true and correct copy of the Demand\n\n Letter is attached as Exhibit D.\n\n 18. By its Demand Letter, Plaintiff further demanded that Borrower make the Vessel\n\n immediately available to Plaintiff for inspection. Borrower further defaulted under the terms of the\n\n Mortgage and other Loan Documents by failing to respond to such demand.\n\n 19. On January 9, 2026, Plaintiff sent a letter (\u201cReaffirming Demand Letter\u201d) to\n\n Borrower, reaffirming its demand for payment in full of all sums due under the Note and other\n\n Loan Documents, but payment has not been made. A true and correct copy of the Reaffirming\n\n Demand Letter is attached as Exhibit E.\n\n 20. Borrower is indebted to Plaintiff under the Note in the total principal amount of\n\n $143,054.75, plus accrued and unpaid interest of $2,345.64 through and including January 23,\n\n 2026 (with a per diem thereafter of approximately $70.5475), plus attorneys\u2019 fees and costs\n\n accrued and accruing under the Note and Mortgage, plus any other expenses as may be due under\n\n the Note and Mortgage, including, without limitation, substitute custodian expenses, the expenses\n\n of arrest, taxes, insurance, and sums advanced by Plaintiff, together with interest thereon.\n\n\n\n\n 4\n 85134797;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/02/2026 Page 5 of 9\n\n\n\n\n 21. Plaintiff owns and holds the Note and all Loan Documents, and thus, it is entitled\n\n to all of the rights and remedies provided for under the Loan Documents and provided under\n\n federal law.\n\n 22. All conditions precedent to Plaintiff\u2019s rights under the Loan Documents and to the\n\n bringing of this action have occurred, been waived, or been otherwise satisfied.\n\n 23. Plaintiff has retained the services of the undersigned attorneys in connection with\n\n the collection of the indebtedness due under the Note, and has agreed to pay them a reasonable fee\n\n for their services. Pursuant to page 2 of the Note and page 2 of the Mortgage, Plaintiff is entitled\n\n to recover its attorneys\u2019 fees herein.\n\n 24. Actual notice of this Complaint will be given to the custodian, caretaker, or master\n\n of the Vessel, and to any person, firm, or corporation with a recorded notice of claim of an\n\n undischarged lien upon the Vessel in accordance with 46 U.S.C. \u00a7 31325(d).\n\n COUNT I \u2013 FORECLOSURE OF SHIP MORTGAGE IN REM\n\n 25. The allegations of Paragraphs 1\u201324 above are incorporated herein and made a part\n\n hereof.\n\n 26. Plaintiff holds a valid and subsisting Mortgage on the Vessel. See Ex. B.\n\n 27. Borrower defaulted under the terms of the Note and Mortgage referenced above,\n\n where Borrower failed to make the payments due on November 17, 2025 and December 17, 2025,\n\n failed to make the Vessel available to Plaintiff for inspection, and by creating, incurring, or\n\n permitting a lien to be placed or imposed on the Vessel and by granting a mortgage on the Vessel\n\n to Locality Bank without permission of the Plaintiff. See Exs. A, B, C.\n\n 28. Plaintiff alleges that Vessel is liable, in rem, for all debts still owed on the\n\n Mortgage, as the Vessel is now in default.\n\n\n\n 5\n 85134797;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 1 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/02/2026 Page 6 of 9\n\n\n\n\n 29.

The Mortgage provides that in the event of default, Mortgagee \u201cmay sell the Vessel,\n\n free from any claim by Owner of any nature whatsoever, in the manner provided by law.\u201d See Ex.\n\n B, Art. II, \u00a71(C).\n\n 31. The Mortgage also provides that Mortgagee may exercise \u201call powers or remedies\n\n now or hereafter existing in admiralty, in equity, at law or by statute,\u201d see Ex. B, Art. II, \u00a7 3, and\n\n because the Mortgage is a preferred mortgage on a documented vessel, under 46 U.S.C. \u00a7\u00a7 31325,\n\n 31326, the Mortgagee may enforce it in a civil action in rem and the Vessel may be sold to pay the\n\n preferred mortgage lien.\n\n 32. Pursuant to the Mortgage and 46 U.S.C. \u00a7\u00a7 31325 and 31326, Plaintiff is entitled\n\n to foreclose its statutory ship mortgage against the Vessel, and to recover all sums due and owing,\n\n including its reasonable attorneys\u2019 fees, costs, interest and expenses.

Borrower will pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing.\n\nINTEREST CALCULATION METHOD. Interest on this Note is computed on a 365/365 simple interest basis; that Is, by applying the ratio of the\ninterest rate over the number of days in a year (365 for ail years, including leap years), multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied\nby the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding.

Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked \"paid in fulf', \u201cwithout recourse\", or\nsimilar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights under this Note, and Borrower\nwill remain obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender.

In that\n correspondence, the Lender demanded that Borrower immediately make the Vessel available for\n inspection under the terms of the Mortgage. On my telephone conversation with Guarantor\n yesterday, January 8, 2026, the Guarantor declined to reveal the location of the Vessel, or whether\n the Vessel was insured. Although Guarantor stated that the location and insurance information\n would be provided in subsequent written correspondence, the Guarantor\u2019s subsequent\n correspondence continues to withhold the requested information concerning the Vessel. The\n continuing failure to make the Vessel available for inspection is an additional default under the\n Mortgage that has continued for more than 15 days, and is therefore another basis for Lender\u2019s\n acceleration of the Loan. See Mortgage Article I, Section 9; Article II, Section 1(a).\n\n It has also come to Lender\u2019s attention that at least two lawsuits have been filed against\n Borrower, which, together with the Borrower\u2019s continued withholding of information as to the\n Vessel, has caused the Lender to believe that the prospect of payment or performance of this Note\n is impaired, and, in good faith, believes itself insecure. See Note, p. 2.\n\n The Lender reaffirms the acceleration of the Loan and demand for the balance of the Loan\n in full. Furthermore, effective January 9, 2026, the Lender hereby exercises its right to\n\n\n akerman.com\n\n 84969742;1\n\fCase 0:26-cv-60289-WPD Document 1-6 Entered on FLSD Docket 02/02/2026 Page 2 of 3\n\n January 9, 2026\n Page 2\n __________________________\n\n\n institute the default rate of interest of 18.00% per annum, in accordance with the terms\n under the Note.\n\n The balance due on the Loan as of January 8, 2026 is $143,054.75 in principal and\n $1,287.43 in interest, for a total of $144,342.18, plus attorneys\u2019 fees and costs which have accrued\n and continue to accrue (the \u201cBalance Due\u201d).
