(1) A buyer of the vessel, other than a person in the business of selling or leasing vessels of that kind, takes free of the security interest if the buyer, acting in good faith and without knowledge of the security interest, gives value and receives possession of the vessel; and
(2) The security interest is subordinate to a conflicting security interest in the vessel that is perfected under section 200A-15 after creation of the certificate and without the conflicting secured party's knowledge of the security interest.
