    Whenever marine equipment is sold in this State, the seller shall execute and deliver to the purchaser an assignment of the certificate of ownerhip.  If a security interest exists at the time of the sale or if, in connection with the sale, a security interest is taken or retained by the seller to secure all or part of the purchase price of the marine equipment, or is taken by a person who by making an advance or incurring an obligation gives value to enable the purchaser to acquire rights in the marine equipment, the name and business or the residence address of the secured party or his assignee shall be noted on the certificate of ownership. Nothing in this section shall apply to a security interest in marine equipment which constitutes inventory held for sale, but the interest shall be subject to chapter 9 of Title 12A of the New Jersey Statutes.  Nothing in this section shall apply to seized marine equipment sold by the director, the State Marine Police Force or any law enforcement agency.
