Red face Fooled Me...

I used to drive by a house, admiring the 20+ foot boat they'd placed next to a fenced corner of their front yard, and adjacent to their gate.

Months go by, and they're having a yard sale so I drop in.

Passing the boat, it's revealed to be only half a boat with lush plantings behind it. Inside the empty hull are six garbage cans, "really to roll" to the curb.

While the lush plantings are only possible in Florida, my hat's off to an excellent use of a boat that has seen the end of its useful days.

Today's Sept 25 craigslist-boston/boats has an extremely good looking Seidleman 30' sailboat with a 9.9-hp outboard, shown moored at anchorage in South Boston ocean harbor mooring with a listed price offer of FREE.

Correct spelling for Seidleman should be Seidelmann.

Appears to be a real offer for free ..... nice looking boat ..... is too good to be true? ..... one way to dispose of an unwanted boat?

..... here's the link .... hmmmm ..... is it for real ...... who knows?

Why don't you take it, put it in your yard and make a planter out of it.

..... there's a similar 1979 Seidelmann 30' sailboat listed in Yacht World for $9,900 ..... so's at this level of price ..... maybe it is a free give-away by someone real wealthy who just wants to unload it fast, or something?

One man's trash is another man's treasure?

Default How does one dispose of a boat?

I've been hesitant to post this but back over 30 years ago, during a house construction, after the foundation hole was dug, a second hole was dug in the front yard for the hull of a stripped down fiberglass boat that obviously had seen better days. Not recommending this as a solution to be copied but I was a witness to it being done.

Several of those involved, including the owner of the boat, are no longer with us so I doubt very much that they will mind this revelation. The person for whom the house was being built was present for the burial.
