Strange, weird or odd or whatever beach finds thread….

Unfortunately derelict vessels have become quite common in the sound, then it falls on the county or state to coordinate getting them removed.
It took multiple emails to multiple agencies before one I reported was finally removed. Some of it broke up over the winter and left debris all over on a beautiful stretch of beach. Let’s just say it wasn’t a one week process, more like months to get it removed.
Derelict or not, it seems it would be a fairly easy process, but that isn’t the case due to legalities.
From a email I received.
“As I explained last year, there was both a required legal process to remove a derelict vessel that has clear private owner responsibility.”

Don't we pay a derelict boat fee when we license our boats?

No idea since I don’t have a boat anymore.
