The Admiral and I are Camping in Chassahowitzka. Crystal clear water, Manatees, and then I spotted this floating cess poolIMG_20220610_152730.jpgIMG_20220610_152718.jpgPXL_20220610_183243271.PORTRAIT.jpgPXL_20220610_180355580.jpgPXL_20220610_180336294.jpg

Well it's still floating or it's a real shallow bottom at that dock. Restorable, that might depend on the amount of money you what to throw at it

Perhaps we need a few new categories:

Pulling the Plug: Most deserving of a Scuttling

Yard Planter of the Year?

Worst Smelling Waterlogged Flotation Foam?

Largest Bush/Tree growing inside the hull?

Deepest Interior Mulch Pile?

Hardest Hit & Twisted but Still Towable Trailer?

Still laughing.... There were a few bad ones here in Citrus County. But this is the worst we saw.

Not even @mickyryan would tackle it

Sorry guys - a "free" boat lift popped up on my feed last night and I should have grabbed the pic while I could. It was no longer buoyant. The pics literally showed the dock lines as the only thing keeping it from being under the dock.

Would have been perfect for this thread. :ROFLMAO:

Would not be happy if I had to dock my boat where the neighbor does😮. Looks like he already tried to shore the canopy up with a hunk of steel pipe.

The problem is when you go to the owner they say" It just needs cleaned up" or they think It's worth Big Bucks, when we did our Florida loop several years ago there where a lot of those types laying around at the more inland marinas
