free R1100S

Has anyone been watching the news about the beached cargo ship off the SW coast of England? Part of the cargo washing ashore are crates of new BMW R1200S bikes. There's video of people trailering the new bikes away by the dozens, apparently legally, something about the law of the sea and salvage. The cargo ship was abandoned by the crew.

Sorry, didn't see the earlier thread about the cargo ship and the Beemers.

I saw the story. Seems it's not really legal but no one's keeping track of who's taking what...

I also saw a couple of RTs wheeled away as well...all we have out here is an occasional cattle truck gone awry. Bummer.
