Poke a few strategic holes in the hull, remove all pollutants, pour
the floatation chambers full of concrete and sink them to make reefs.


Local,guy here, strips the hulls, sells the metals, and has a roller
trailer, he loads the boat on and drops it off at a power cogen plant.
They burn the boat for power, then the ashes, and melted glass, take,a,lot
less,landfill.
