So, it must have come off its moorings during a storm I recon, drifted out to sea and no one went looking for it or reported it missing? As I see it, it is resting on its keel and hull and someone cut out that beautiful carved wood support pole from the cabin (seen in the sales pictures). The shoes have me puzzled, when you put up your boat for sale, you don’t leave your shoes onboard…😮
That is a Levo-Gage. It's basically a level that tells the sailor the angle the boat is at when the horizon is used as a point of reference. Thanks for your question!
@@anchoradventuresyt thanks buddy great footage and good on you closing hatches after others left it all open to weather normally who ever refloats it owns it
I don't get the lack of anyone DOING anything constructive about SAVING this poor boat! What's the point in merely documenting the slow but inevitable decay of this once proud craft? I seem to remember you saying that you are in touch with the owner? If correct, does he, or perhaps she, have any plans for removing their property from the current position? If so, then they should make a submission to the relevant authority without delay. OR, possibly they may be ìnclined to grant you the right of salvage? Of course, such a contract would necessarily have to be legally witnessed etc. Ì would be expecting to acquire the boat for a nominal sum or even for free, bearing in mind the expenses to come. I don't think I would be busting myself to get her cleaned up. For the price of hiring a house cleaning service and a rubbish skip I would definitely prefer to leave the hard graft to others! Whoever the new owner turned out to be I wouldn't expect to pay much over $5000 to get her clean enough to commence a thoroughgoing refit.
No, unfortunately, I did not locate an owner. The next time I head out there I'm going to see if it was red tagged (that's when the local authorities have been notified and begin an investigation). If not then I'll report it myself. Thanks for your comment!
@@anchoradventuresyt dude speak to a marine lawyer pal,,pal being the opreative word here,,and get yur salvage rights sorted before you do anything,, mammoet the norwegian outfit,, tend to usa navy recovery, but if you call them try your luck and ask them or a yank slavers firm for advice, in the uk you can find a way to hornswaggle it from slavers rights, get legal advice= preferable free First ! but taking control of an existing shipping hazzard and environmental hazard may be the way to go ?
@@anchoradventuresyt are these abandoned by smugglers or folks wanting to get into the usa or what ? Are you not tempted to claim salvage right on them ?

I agree. Thanks for your comment!

I think squatters may have left the shoes. But yeah, I agree with you on how it may have gotten there. Thanks for your comment!
What was the brass tag as you went inside looked like could been a maker tag

No, other people have opened them and haven't closed them back. Thanks for your comment!
