**第一項**  前章第二節第二款及び第百八十一条から第百八十四条までの規定は、船舶を目的とする担保権の実行としての競売について準用する。この場合において、第百十五条第三項中「執行力のある債務名義の正本を提示し、かつ、同項に規定する事由を疎明しなければ」とあるのは「同項に規定する事由を疎明し、かつ、担保権の登記（仮登記を除く。）がされている場合を除き、第百八十九条において準用する第百八十一条第一項（第一号を除く。）、第二項若しくは第三項の規定により提出すべき文書を提示し、又はこれらの規定により提出すべき電磁的記録を提出しなければ」と、第百八十一条第一項第二号ハ中「一般の先取特権」とあるのは「先取特権」と読み替えるものとする。

The provisions of Section 2, Subsection 2 of the preceding Chapter and Articles 181 through 184 apply mutatis mutandis to the auctioning of property as a means of enforcing a security interest in a vessel. In this case, the phrase "present an authenticated copy of an enforceable title of obligation and make a prima facie showing of the grounds prescribed in that paragraph" in Article 115, paragraph (3) is deemed to be replaced with "present any of the documents to be submitted pursuant to the provisions of Article 181, paragraph (1) (excluding item (i)), paragraph (2), or paragraph (3) as applied mutatis mutandis pursuant to Article 189 or submit electronic or magnetic records to be submitted pursuant to these provisions, except in the cases where a prima facie showing of the grounds prescribed in that paragraph is made and a security interest has been registered (excluding provisional registration)," and the term "a general statutory lien" in Article 181, paragraph (1), item (ii), (c) is deemed to be replaced with "a statutory lien."
