I had this recurring nightmare with an old boat that I had
once.
The
landfill wouldn't take it and I couldn't donate it. What to
do
with it
when
it just wasn't worth keeping?
At the suggestion of a friend, I stuck a "For Sale" sign on it
with an
asking price of 1000 bucks. Within 2 days I "accepted" an
offer
of $500
and
the happy new owner towed it away.
My friend at the boat shop once a year cleans out his yard of
boats
that go over the mechanics lien time limit or boats just left
in
the
yard by people who don't' want them anymore. He sells the ones
worth
money, but most of them are junk.
Anyway - and I've actually been there when this happens - he
puts a
couple out by the street with FREE signs on them.
They are gone within an hour.
It's like freakin magic. :)

At Pillar Point Harbor in Calif, the put the abandoned and dead
beat
slip
paying boats in "The Box". They tow them up on the beach and let
the
salvagers go at them.
Oh, bull****. Anybody with any sense would know that's not true.
There
are too many environmental regulations in place that would prevent
a
company from doing such, let alone the fact that the boats don't
belong
to them. That would be akin to me taking your boat out of your yard
and
doing the same thing.
Actually they can tow your car out of your yard in some states if the
registration is not current. Stops urban blight.
That doesn't mean they can destroy it, or allow others to destroy it.
And the harbor district
has a perfectly legal right to do this.
Proof?
You do not pay your slip rental,
just like a mechanics lien, they own the boat.
Are you trying to say that having a lien on someone's property means
"they own" it??????
And after the salvagers get
through, there is very little to tow off to the landfill. Works
well.
So, let me get this straight. You claim that the marina now owns the
boat, right? But, instead of selling it and making money from it, they
decide to let salvagers make the money????? How stupid are you, Bill?
Hey...that's where Bill gets the pieces and parts to make his uninsured
contractor home repairs...
You drunk or on the medical marijuana again?
