Abstract
The scope of this dissertation is an examination of the different aspects of legal encouragement for salvors in English, South African, and German salvage laws. For this purpose, attention will be given to the questions of whether the present salvage laws in England, as the "mother"-country for maritime law, in South Africa, and in Germany encourage modem salvors to undertake expensive and risky salvage operations or whether the mentioned legal systems dampen the salvor's motivation to salvage life and maritime property out of distress situations.
