  • Crane salvage of a boat blown ashore and damaged in Hurricane Ian. This Mainship 34 Mach2 single screw diesel sport fish was washed ashore in the tidal surge of the storm and has been laying on its side with a hole in it since the devastating storm over 2 months ago that ravaged Fort Myers, Cape Coral and the rest of Southwest Florida.
    I was lucky to save my boat. This owner wasn’t so lucky.

    That was a disaster of a boat lift. Obviously they had little to no experience.

    Since it was already written off, that would explain the less than stellar recovery.

      @@AdventuresofHappyOurs Not the professional guys. This rag tag crew were too lazy to reposition the barge. Single spud, yet too much work to reposition ffs. They're probably from the East Coast, West Palm Beach or somesuch. Hey, I heard there's a lot of NY'ers over there. Retired government workers like "police heros" and fire heros from NY. Maybe you should look around over there.....

SW Florida is home for the good mid-westerners for the most part. While Broward, Miami-Dade, Palm Beach is for the NY'ers.

    Man when that barge came up and I seen that crane I was like know way in hell its gonna pick it up...I was sort right that boat is right there at the cranes limit personally in my opion they shouldn't have even attempted to pick it up riden that line of it being just about to heavy and not being able to properly maneuver it is stupid on that operators part he might get it done but he will cause unnecessary damage.
