16-58-123. Method of service -- Owner or officer of steamboat or watercraft.
When any action to recover judgment against the owners or officers of any steamboat, vessel, or other watercraft for any debt or liability created by them, or either of them, is commenced in any county in which the steamboat, vessel, or watercraft was found and, from any cause the summons or other process cannot be served in the action in the county where that action was commenced, a service in any other county in this state has the same effect as if made in the county where the action was brought.
