Some environmentally conscious steward left no trace, thankfully.
It takes a fair bit of doing to get where this photo was taken. Some asshole decided their boat was not worth the hassle.
Just got home so I have choring to do but eventually I'm going to report this when I figure out who to report this to. It's on a national park, but it's well off the beaten path and it would require 4wd equipment to wreck it. TX numbers are legible are the registration is good thru 2025 so this is recent. Dumbasses couldn't even abandon their garbage properly. A just and properly functioning federal government would jail and fine this person along with banning them from ever entering another National Park ever again, along with hours upon hours of cleaning up trash off my beloved seashores.
I hope it doesn't just sit and rot. Humans are shit sometimes.
that wasn’t left behind, that was lost….
probably wasn’t tied down properly somewhere.
people sure do trash the ocean but not with a boat worth thousands of dollars, with the motor still on….
also, the owner could’ve drowned.
i’m pretty sure you can legally take it though.
lol you dont live near the ocean then. People very much litter the ocean with cheap fiberglass hulled boats with a finite lifespan. The 'motor' is still on, but the cowling, some electronics, lower unit, prop, gas tank, and controls have been stripped.
i live by the ocean
Yeah, I'm thinking this was flotsam from a storm. It was either not correctly moored, or it was a hurricane and moorings didn't matter.
