Nothing in this Part prejudices the right of the salvor, where salvage services have been rendered by a ship belonging to Her Majesty or by the commander or any of the crew thereof, to proceed for the enforcement of the salvage claim otherwise than in the manner provided by this Act, but the salvor has no right to detain the vessel, cargo or property saved, unless he elects to proceed under this Part.
