I read a story from a year or two back. After 2 years in the courts, the sailboat that was towed-in was sold at auction. It sold for $9,000. This was the boat where the man fell off the boat.
So the people that towed the boat lost 2 days of fishing, had to pay legal fees and ended up getting next to nothing for their troubles. That is, nothing other than the intrinsic satisfaction of saving a sailboat, which was not really of intrinsic value to them, but would be for me.
Has anyone ever heard of it working out financially, to support going out and rescuing a derelict sailboat?
