Default an old boat and enthusiastic new owner

I think that what struck me so much about this incident is that often
when passing a dock and I see an old poorly maintained boat that I
think, "Somebody who really cared could fix her up". However, this
shows that sometimes even a fiberglass boat can be so far gone that
she is basically landfill.

Once repair costs exceed the best possible resale price it becomes a
"negative value" boat. There are a lot of them in Florida.
