I have a boat slip in Tx. that someone decited to park their sailboat in and let it sink. If I raise it do I have any rights to it?

Re: sunkin boat

Maybe the person that owns the marina has a right to put a lien on it for water storage. You would have to check with your local DMV (or who ever registers your boats) to see what has to be done to claim salvage. I hope that sucked did not have an engine on it or the Environmental fines are close to $1000/day for oil in water.<br /><br />Bob
