What happens to them? Are there opportunities for 'poor' sailors to
acquire them at a good price... though I expect if they're abandoned, by
the time authorities get around to dealing with them, they're not in
very good shape, and that good price would have to be, probably, very
good.

Bear in mind that there are many boats that are worth FAR LESS than
nothing, and so would be a very bad deal even if the owner gave the boat
to the "poor" sailor for free.
