Another Abandoned Vessel in West Florida
Abandoned, derelict vessels are much discussed and bemoaned, but the cost of removal continues to prevent communities from addressing the problem. See /?p=150203, as well as other articles by typing “derelicts” in the Search window in our Homepage.
After last Sundays, Oct. 4th, big winds, we have another abandoned vessel washed ashore at DeSoto Park, Manatee River, Bradenton FL.

Has anyone contacted Boat Angels to see if they wanted the boats? They may not take all of them depending on the costs. But even just a few would be beneficial.
Maybe the municipalities would share the cost.
The boat probably belongs to someone. You can’t take the vessel if it is titled in someone’s name. To give it to Boat Angels or any organization the owner would have to transfer the title over to the new owner.
