I know the ship could be sold but would they actually have any legal reason to seize the contents of the containers?  The contents don't belong to the ship owners or operators.

Maritime law can be funny.  See here for instance:

When they started changing to red glass lenses in the 3:00 & 9:00 positions for s horizontal indication, the center lamp was extinguished. Then they went with green lenses at the 12:00 & 6:00 positions for a vertical indication and the center position was again extinguished.  

 

 

There, that what you were looking for?

Judge, AQUIT that man. He got it done.
